I think if the ref had called a yellow it would have stood. Call a red it's a red.

100% dogso at the professional level.

100% yellow and SPA in HS.

This ain't HS.

I thought it was clear red live then after the replays not so much.


It was pretty soft.

It was pretty soft.

But still a foul and you add in the DOGSO factor, it then becomes a red.

For the "soft" crowd, it's 100% a foul and dogso. But the way he's called this game it's soft. The rake on trossard. The multiple fouls to KDB with no cards. Thats the problem.

I actually hope we can avoid playing Iran simply because I would like to avoid all of the b.s. that will come with that.


A draw here puts Egypt in control if they win tonight. If Iran does win the group, it'll depend on which 3rd place them they get. There are several that they're paired with that can beat them

That's such an easy spa card at 82 not given. He's so bad.

why is Iran playing so passively now?

Aren't used to playing with an advantage. Don't know what to do.

Iran playing not to lose. Let's see if it backfires.

The red card could come into play in the group standings if there is a tie involving Belgium and goal differential is even, as "fair conduct" points are the next tiebreaker.

Belgium has to be hoping that the Kiwis don't get blown out by Egypt.

Group G still the only group to have no winners.

I doubt that foul gets called anywhere else on the field but definitely not in the box.

Looking at the offside call again, it's silly that his feet put him behind the defender but leaning forward makes him offside.

It was also a flop after a minimal tug. The ref was total crap the whole game which helped Iran a lot.

By the letter of the law it was the right call but you are right in the context of the poor officiating feels so soft.

I think of it more like momentum based, personaly. He moved first so has more momentum going towards the goal when the ball is played so he has gained that advantage by being offside. Its very close either way

Technically Iran had 2 offenses on that play. There is a new ish rule that the team taking a free kick cannot have a player within 1 yard of the defensive wall. Even if onsides that goal gets ruled out.

Do y'all have any thoughts on what to watch for in the Egypt/NZ matchup coming up? I definitely would like to see the All Whites advance in Group G but they seemed faily average against a feisty Iranian program in that 2-2 draw.

Nice. He let play restart on the yellow card without a whistle and while he was showing the card. And Egypt almost scored.

so get a red card for covering your mouth to combat racism but naming your team the All Whites is perfectly fine
