🚨 JUST IN 🚨
FIFA will apologize to Iran following their disallowed goal versus Belgium. Mehdi Taremi thought he'd given his side the lead following a smartly worked free kick, followed by a tidy finish from the striker, just out of reach of Courtois' outstretched arm.
The decision of offside was given on field before there was a subsequent VAR check where the goal was confirmed as offside. However, FIFA have revealed there were several errors which led to the goal being wrongfully disallowed. The first being the VAR team marking out their lines based off the wrong player, and Taremi was in fact being kept onside by a Belgium defender when the free kick was taken.
The VAR team quickly realized this once play had restarted, but it was too late to correct the mistake. Iran feel this was done intentionally by FIFA, believing that with the US as the hosts, they have been told to try and have them eliminated from the competition at the earliest opportunity, and that they don't care how obvious it is that that's the case."
@ForeverGee It’s the framing and editing of the show. Every conversation makes it seem like Aniya is harping on the issue when she’s just asking for transparency. This all could have been avoided if KC had been honest from the get go. But he keeps telling her one thing and the boys another
The ironic part about every compliment we’ve gotten about the World Cup is what the guests are falling in love with is Diversity. It’s the thing that actually makes this place worth staying in and why we can’t allow it to be destroyed.
This Father’s Day, remember Jacob Flickinger, an American father killed by an IDF strike while cooking meals for starving families in Gaza.
He never made it home to his son. Justice for Jacob.
Whenever I catch myself not reading things completely, I remember anti-intellectualism is on the rise, literacy is in decline, and I don’t want to be a VICTIM!
After tourists reported him with a snare around his neck, it took two days of aerial patrols to find this snared giraffe. But we didn’t give up.
As soon as he was located, our helicopter flew the SWT/KWS Southern Vet Unit to the scene. Dr Lawi darted the giraffe from the air, then ground teams took over and roped him down for treatment.
Even by giraffe standards, this was a particularly daunting operation - this giraffe was notably large and pumping with adrenaline. Watch to see why they are already among the most challenging creatures to treat, and see how donations funded this lifesaving operation.
This #WorldGiraffeDay, be a part of more lifesaving treatments by donating: https://t.co/NVpsbuFaAn
