Feast your eyes on not just the goal of this World Cup, but one of the best goals in World Cup history. Consider the stakes, the moment, the technique. Are you kidding me?!? 🇨🇻
Zlatan Ibrahimović blasts the referee and VAR after Croatia's last-minute goal against Portugal was ruled out:
🗣️ “That is daylight robbery. Absolute daylight robbery. Don't tell me football is better because of decisions like that. The referee and VAR have stolen the biggest moment of Croatia's World Cup.
If you need five minutes, endless replays, slow motion and lines drawn across a screen to find an offside, then it isn't a clear mistake. The referee has hidden behind VAR instead of having the courage to make a football decision.
Croatia earned that goal with heart, courage and belief. They celebrated, millions celebrated with them, and then a group of officials sitting in a room erased all of that. That's not justice that's killing the emotion of football.
This is the FIFA World Cup, not a science experiment. Fans don't travel across the world to watch officials freeze frames and measure millimetres. They come to witness unforgettable moments, and tonight one of those moments was stolen.
I don't blame Portugal I blame the referee and VAR. Croatia deserved to have that goal stand, and instead they're going home wondering how football's biggest tournament ended with the officials becoming the main characters. For me, that's one of the worst VAR decisions you'll ever see.”
Thierry Henry on Colombia's goal being ruled out for offside against Portugal:
🗣️ “How on earth is that offside? I've watched it again and again, and I still can't understand how the referee and VAR came to that decision. That goal should have stood.”
“This is exactly why supporters are losing trust in VAR. The technology was introduced to correct obvious mistakes, not create even bigger controversies.”
“Colombia have been robbed of a huge moment. You can't disallow a goal like that on the biggest stage without being absolutely certain. From what we've seen, there was nothing clear about that decision.”
“The referee didn't just rule out a goal he took away the emotion, the celebration, and a potentially defining World Cup moment. That's devastating for every Colombian player and supporter.”
“If this is the standard of officiating at a World Cup, then football has a serious problem. The referee and VAR have to answer for a decision that could change an entire tournament.”
The most surreal thing of our trip so far. Currently driving towards Louisiana and the radio station we were listening to started talking about our trip and played Ella Langley especially for us😭😭😭
He’s dating Kim Kardashian, who has an estimated net worth of nearly $2 billion. He's worth nearly $500 million and lives in Monaco to avoid paying taxes in the UK.
Remarkable lack of self-awareness.
