Right... #worldcup
England 2 vs 1 Congo - I don't know how the hell England got so lucky, but man, Kane must be receiving a raise with this one. Congo goalkeeper did a tremendous job. It could have been very different game if the second one from Congo would have got in.
Belgium 3 vs 2 Senegal - Belgium passed this time, but Senegal played very well. Unsure if Belgium will have the same lunch on the next one, vs USA. But lets see... they might have eliminated a strategic team here out of bunch of luck.
USA 2 vs 0 Bosnia - This is what Belgium will get, hence why I think next round they might be doomed. USA is playing with house support so... not entirely new. The pressure will be different by the end of the cup.
Spain 3 v 0 Austria - What can I say... Austria defenders were not up the task, lots of people not being "marked". And as consequence, Spain agility and being on the right place at the right time showed how its done.
Portugal 2 v 1 Croatia - Sooo many offsides.. Croatia would have won this in the old days easy unfortunately, technology won here. Not sure if defensive Portugal will have the same luck with Spain.. I think that's when we will get beaten.
Switzerland 2 vs 0 Algeria - The Swiss knife cuts threw very well. Algeria tried. But even with Switzerland throwing away goals, they didn't pass.
I think they should change the offside rule. Do many beautiful goals are being denied by a toe or piece of shoulder in offside position.
I would prefer to change it so the attacker should be completely past the last defender.
I'm talking about these examples.
The attacker had the most advantage because he had walked away from the defender.
yep, I got what you meant. In most normal sits it really makes sense.
It's only when we get to those stupid moments of someone grabbing or falling that these start to make a claim for, "oh if he was in front of me and forcing me to go faster"
Grabbing is not allowed, so free kick or penalty 😉
But often it's not only the defender doing it.
But grabbing can be easily seen on camera and punished afterwards.
When an attacker is completely past the defender, they really have advantage of this.
Yeah, I meant "invisible" grabbing, LOL. The art of faking in these sports is immense!
So many ways of "oh, I am falling..." just to hit you and prevent something from happening, right? It's not new.
Yeah, it's harder now and I hope someday it does not turn out to be worse.
Would probably make it harder because of the number of situations that players can do, like falling, grabbing, and then what to count on those situations... stating the same line to get away with those problems because it's more "neutral".
But yeah, I get what U mean.
I'm not sure but I think you like football😉
Not a fanatic for the sport, but yes, I enjoy a good game.
