CR needs to be a super sub playing 20-30 minutes.
Then Portugal has a chance to win it all.


His arrogance won't allow that. His reaction to being the last player subbed tells the story there.

You'd think if he had any understanding of the reality of his current game, he'd be licking his chops to come on for the final 25 minutes with fresh legs against a tired defense.

Watch the defense on the replay. Two defenders are in perfect position. But neither one plays the ball, they just stand there.

Result aside…

Why would you pull Ronaldo in the 82nd minute of a tie game in the do or die game against Croatia in World Cup? He was not injured and it's his last game ever if they lost.

That goal doesn't happen, if they didn't.

Big names, but I'm not convinced it will be competitive.

My argument, as someone formerly licensed as a referee, is that it's dumb for a player whose feet are in a set position behind a defender to be called offside because he leaned forward.


As a former defender that played at a high level, I think its dumb the offensive player facing the goal and defense can't stay on sides. We played with our back to the goal. Strikers already have a step as we have to react, flip our hips, and get back into position.
Sooo…turn?

And he is onside, that's my point. His feet are aren't goalside to you, he just leaned. That isn't materially changing his position.

Too many Portugal players went forward on that wide shot. It nearly bit them.
