Just a yellow. Nothing there.
what a a fuckin dive
Iām cheering.
I think this destined for pens. If it is then I hope 5-4 to the Swiss with Messi missing his.

2nd yellow for diving, stupid.
Oh fuck itā¦ Thatās going off itās so fixed for them.
When did that rule come in, in between the time it took them to review the decision?
Cheating yeah but there was an elbow swing by an Argentinian in the first half and we arenāt looking at that?
He can sob all he wants, donāt fucking cheat when youāre on a booking. Simple.

Mistaken identity rule, which was misused in one of the earlier match.

I would assume mistaken identity rule would be for when a ref books a player of the same race accidentally.
Has such team had such a rub of decisions as this lot? I wonāt miss Messi if this is what we get because of it.
Please stop.
It is the rule. Was already used against Almiron in the group games
The rule states that if a player is booked or sent off - but the foul was actually committed by the opposition team - the decision can be changed.
Another new law is second yellow cards leading to a red card can be reviewed, but not first yellow cards. The only reason referee Makkelie was able to rescind the decision was by using the mistaken identity law.
Itās just the name they use for cases of simulation
Yeah they clarified after the US game this was the wrong use of VAR.

Itās so unfortunate, Swiss was playing really well and put Argentina under so much pressure. Probably a real let off for Argentina now.
