@CrewsMat10 This is the one where Messi mid-controlled it and Anderson kicked the ball past him

[Martin Banks @martinrbanks]

Really dumb tactically. You can’t play attack v defence vs the world champions and Messi for 40 minutes; take off your pace outlet in Gordon and expect to survive #ENGARG

@zarahsultana You continue to endorse a project whose founding principle is the destruction of Israel & the slaughter of Jews globally.

Whose operatives gloried in the murder, rape & abduction of Jews.

You have the gall to say you oppose genocide whilst celebrating its architects.

Fascist

@ChantAngle64 @EssexPR She would love the fact that her death has exposed the nation’s leftists as the bigots they are

@raphaeldogg As is fashionable you appear to define someone’s opinions by what they were against rather than what they were for.

Anne Widdecombe was for democracy, for enduring relationships which provide a stable family unit for the benefit of children.

What’s so toxic about that?

@joe_yer99 Well, rivalry entails supporting your team against our team. Rivalry means one team against another. Your team doesn’t seem to be around. Bigotry entails supporting anyone against a team that you have unwarranted prejudice against. You are a bigot not a rival. Congrats

@politi_cal95 Her death does not absolve you from your bigotry against her

@simonlevans @BBCNews What was that expression you and your ilk expound; oh yes #bekind

@UU_Ess_Pee You appear to have imagined this scenario

@L_A_D_J On present evidence so are you

@KazP19 Karen; how appropriate

@FMWkds Yes Sir, I Can Boogie - written by 2 Germans, sung by 2 Spaniards. Who cares.

@PeterTatchell Oh dear, you may be expecting a visit from Devon & Cornwall Police

@Sakaextra2 Lineker

@EmmaRincon He had not lost the ball. Who was the player most likely to have the next touch of the ball? Salah.

Yes his progress was affected by Alvarez’s touch on the ball but was then impeded by contact on the foot.

Next we have the arm pull by Macallister on Trezeguet; clear foul.

[Martin Banks @martinrbanks]

@JT96236 @afor007 @DaleJohnsonBBC It’s the threshold which was set for VAR review. If the challenge on Martinez - seen & not sanctioned by the referee at the time - merits a VAR review then the similar challenge on Salah does. As does Macallister’s off the ball arm pull impeding Trezeguet from reaching the ball

@Heccles94 What happens to those Hamas fighters who hide behind and under children? What happens to supporters of organizations whose founding charter demands the global elimination of Jews; adult and children? What happens to @HarryEccles who fails to condemn genuine genocide

[Martin Banks @martinrbanks]

@DanielJHannan Bonkers position. The state is paying them to stay home (and in many cases paying for that home). They are in an excellent position to provide care for their own children. Paying for childcare for people who would otherwise be earning and paying taxes is a different matter.

[Martin Banks @martinrbanks]

@afor007 @DaleJohnsonBBC Contact is not a foul. A foul is impeding a players ability to play the ball. As the image shows Martinez is able to play the ball. Macallister’s pull back of the arm of the Egyptian forward was not an attempt to play the ball its sole motive was to impede the forward. Penalty
