@theoldzealand I would say you cant criticise the referee for a decision when you score minutes later anyway and had at least two more chances including a 3 v 1 counter to win the game.

Mbappe, Haaland and Messi this tournament. Amazing

@theoldzealand Argentina has faced two African teams in the knockouts: Cape Verde and Eygpt and both have been games of the tournaments.

@ESPNFC The race is pretty much this.

[Olafington @PrinceOlaf21]

@LaLigaMichael Tbf, it didnt help that carlo tactics was to cede the ball to norway and counter. Which btw nearly worked if not for bad finishing and vini giving up the penalty

[Olafington @PrinceOlaf21]

Literally the first time Norway play with any speed in attack, goal chances appear.

[Olafington @PrinceOlaf21]

@JanAageFjortoft Jan, why is Norway playing so passive. Odegaard is either losing the ball in dangerous spots or dwadling on it. And the whole team is playing at a snail pace allowing Brazil to get into a shape.

[Olafington @PrinceOlaf21]

@NealGardner_ Odegaard is causing more issues for Norway than he is helping them.

[Olafington @PrinceOlaf21]

@NealGardner_ A really poor match so far from Norway. Too slow and passive. They look scared of Brazil and are allowing brazil to counter easily. The only time they were aggressive on the ball, they scored a goal

[Olafington @PrinceOlaf21]

Some really poor decision making at the start of this Brazil Norway match:

Odegaard dwadling on the ball, putting Sorloth offside
Ajer's tackle on Cunha
Bruno penalty.

Christina explains the concerns about it more than i could

1/9🚨Transparency isn’t just good governance—it protects the integrity of the game.

FIFA’s Disciplinary Committee did not overturn Balogun’s red card. It suspended the suspension under Article 27 of the FIFA Disciplinary Code, making him eligible to play.

The issue isn’t… 🧵

@theoldzealand Sure but how often does FIFA use this article to effectively overturn a referees call? It doesnt send a good signal and the US govt being involved makes it worse.

@womenxfootball I dont know if their wives and girlfriends are saying "oh thank god we arent there" or blowing up their phones right now. 😅

[Olafington @PrinceOlaf21]

@D35P3RAD05 @nocontextfm1 I used "diving" to mean "simulation" in basic terms. But a player can exaggerate contact, or initiate contact with another player without it being a yellow. Referees dont pull out a card unless it was 100 percent clear Harry was trying to deceive.

@muhammadbutt Putting generations on the line, you could say.

This is how I can tell half of twitter is just people reacting to tweets without checking thinking. How is everyone triggered by a parody account?

So if a baby is born in this country, he's an automatic citizen? Since when?

[Olafington @PrinceOlaf21]

@BlugranaPorVida @NealGardner_ Yh. And now after that Uruguay team pretty much kicked lumps into all Spain players, their prospects are looking grim
