Meh, we have seen a higher bar for physical contact for penalties in almost all the games. But sure, there are refs who would give it, but then bar must be lower than it is in this World Cup
3rd quarter coming up in a quarter of an hour.
Hahaha, I thought it was O’Shea too until I looked up the XI.
It was a penalty but rejected because Jesse Marsch is wearing jeans.
I’m afraid there will be 6 quarters tonight.
With a seventh dedicated to penalties
Yeah, well, there has been several such situations where a bit of contact has not resulted in a penalty. And he fell because he kicked himself into the SA player, not due to the SA player’s leg. If this then is a pen, the bar would be suddenly lower.
I favour Canda to win, but want a cleaner situation for a penalty (given the high contact bar)
In any case, Canada looks capable. Just lacks precision.
Player with the most possession in the match is the SA keeper
That Cornelius header looks worse with each replay
Karen Carney looks like she just woke up and asked to do a 9am meeting. Doesn’t even look like she wants to do this game.
Urgh, even the Coca Cola commercial is all about VAR now. It sucks!
Canada’s corners have been amazingly awful. Canada has played well, but their corners are spectacularly awfully planned. Can someone inform me as to the plan, when there are no players inside the box (almost) ?
We must all love the doubleplusgood hydration breaks now
But what about your corners ?
What is the deal with trying to make it as easy as possible for SA defenders on deadballs ? ![]()
Yeah, because it’s all about player welfare.
Is this a segue to Canadian water supplies?
Sounds like Alphonso Davies will be brought on at Rafa-time
Would we favour a high scoring win (for team of your choice ) in normative time, or goals in extra time, or perhaps a penalty ?
Run debate !
Sparse crowd for this
It represents the home DIY spirit to paint the house, and geting paint splashed all over ourselves.
