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.”
@stefen_rosner@TheElmonters#Isles power play: skate to the red line, drop pass to Barzal. He tries to beat 4 players into their zone. If he gains the zone, pass around w/o shooting or set up a 2-1 for other team
Rinse repeat fail

@stefen_rosner Can someone ask why they keep Soucy and Palat in the lineup? I would rather have Tsyplikov as a healthy scratch than Palat. That trade was a Millbury
@stefen_rosner It’s time for the Roy apologists to realize he might be the problem. He is the one who benched Duclair when he was on a heater. He is the one playing guys like Soucy and Palat who have been straight garbage. I always liked Patrick but he isn’t getting it done.
@realdefender45@realdefender118 Reported and blocked. You know how they play, they will do whatever it takes to take you down because you have become more than relevant voice for truth and common sense.
