FIFA has done absolutely nothing to make the world think this isn't exactly what happened.

“Now blow the whistle immediately so Cape Verde can’t even have the last kick of the game vs Argentina.”- FIFA Officials

[Evan Connell @Econn25]

The CFP Selection Committee has decided Cabo Verde will move on to the round of 16.

What a game. Wish they would've been given one more chance late, but no way FIFA was going to allow that to happen.

[Evan Connell @Econn25]

I have absolutely no faith that FIFA will do the right thing. None whatsoever.

If VAR can determine one of these was a red card while the other was not, they should certainly be able to rescind the red card before the next game.

But FIFA will undoubtedly mess this up as well.

[Evan Connell @Econn25]

@goal Villain? Wth are you talking about? Only villain out there is wearing green.

[Evan Connell @Econn25]

The worst use of VAR this World Cup. After doing nothing to control the game, after not handing out a yellow, you use VAR to go to a red? Game-altering B.S.

Going into the final day of April there are 5 teams in baseball that are 7 or more games back from first place in their division. 4 of them are in the NL East.

What a start for the @Braves

Matt Boldy just made that Dallas defense look like the Team Canada defense in the gold medal game.

BIG TEN DOMINANCE 💪

50% of the teams left in the men's NCAA tournament are from the same conference‼️

[Evan Connell @Econn25]

Iowa closed the final 20 minutes of the game committing only 1 (one) foul.

Yes, as in the entire 2nd half, they only had 1 foul.

[Nick Bahe @NickBahe]

Wow! Iowa closed the game on 15-6 run in final 6 minutes. (Really was 15-3 if you take away inconsequential late 3 from Sandfort).

[Evan Connell @Econn25]

Will be even more interesting when the stripes decide to insert themselves into the game and start calling them.

[Josh Peterson @joshtweeterson]

If these lack of foul calls keep up, the FT situation late could be quite interesting.

[Evan Connell @Econn25]

Some managing editor at @YahooSports right now...

[Dan Wolken @DanWolken]

Really cool that Nebraska leads by 2 with 2 seconds left and has 2 points it shouldn’t have because of a missed double dribble.

@MarchMadnessMBB Can ya'll come get your guy? He's wrecking what would otherwise be a good game.

Doing a bang-up job in OKC tonight

[Evan Connell @Econn25]

More than a few times they made this VERY apparent in the first half.

[Jack Mitchell @JackMitchellLNK]

Here’s the one drawback of a huge crowd. You start to think their reaction to everything is some sort of propaganda you have to push back against as a ref.

If it were 1992, Vanderbilt’s point guard would have four traveling violations by now.

[Evan Connell @Econn25]

99 for Vandy with the flop of the tourney so far. Wow, that was soft.

[Evan Connell @Econn25]

Haines just stalled his way to the title without so much as a warning. An absolute gift for the senior on his way out the door.

Not a good look for the sport if that lack of wrestling is being rewarded.

[Evan Connell @Econn25]

Might have been the easiest lane violation call ever. To the surprise of absolutely nobody, the @bigten crew missed it. #nebrasketball
