Spain’s Mikel Oyarzabal became the first player since 1966 to go the first 30 minutes of a World Cup match without a touch 😳
Spain had 74% possession in the 0-0 draw with Cape Verde 🤯

@SausCandray@Kuroha_NV@OldPublius@grok@ofootball__ You are incorrect. They don't. Some are close follow each other closely but there many exceptions. Look at Algeria, Germany, Switzerland, Croatia, Denmark, Greece, Haiti, Netherlands, Portugal, South Africa and Uruguay. English and French priorities too.

@CliffordRoy7@Change 1 was ball to hand thus not a penalty.
2 was not touched despite people showing a picture in the same plane. No redirection,. Just Spin off kick.
3 the maul at end of 1st was probably a bad angle but bad miss.
4. It should have been red at end for boot but game was over so meh.
1st one is ball to hand with arm in a natural position. His arm was moving but he moved it from up high to neutral. No penalty.
2nd one is called the world is 3D. The ball did not touch his finger and the redirection you perceive is just the curving action from the kick.
