@FootballviralHQ You’d be ok with the holding mid getting an unfair booking instead? Nah, spot on in this case. If you’re going hard on fouls you need to make diving more costly
@andrew_wiebe Thing is without VAR you need to just be ok with being more lenient on fouls and close offsides. With VAR you need to go hard on all rule infringements otherwise it ruins the game. Think they’re getting better at making quick decisions though
@andrew_wiebe It’s the rule and not a bad one tbf, makes diving more costly. If you’re going to go harder with punishment on lighter touches you need to equally go hard on diving, otherwise you ruin the fluidity of the game
🚨 “If You Don’t See It as a Red Card, Then Football Is Not for You” — Thierry Henry on Embolo’s Dismissal
🗣️ :“First of all, I want to give a lot of credit to the referee. In moments like this, under pressure, with the intensity of the game rising, it’s not easy to make big decisions — but he handled the situation very, very well. Calm, composed, and most importantly, consistent. That’s exactly the kind of discipline football needs.
Now, when you look at the incident… I really don’t understand why Embolo goes into that challenge like that. Your team has just started to dominate the game, you are building momentum, everything is going in your favor — and you are already on a yellow card. You have to be smarter than that. You have to read the moment.
There is no need to dive into a situation like that. You’re risking everything — not just for yourself, but for your team. At this level, that lack of control can cost you the game, and it did.
And let me be very clear — if there are people who think that is not a red card, then football is not for them. The rules are there for a reason. Discipline is part of the game. You cannot complain when a player crosses that line and gets punished.
For me, the referee got it absolutely right.”

@Lord_Alucard_V@GastonElTrueno@RMCsport Las Malvinas son Argentinas amigo, y sos de Mexico deja de chuparle la pija a paises a los que les chupas un huevo y te discriminan. Tene algo de amor propio y defende lo tuyo sin estar tan pendiente de otros
