World Cup

[CN3089]

America cheated out of another goal lmao

[jcap]

ok seriously is there a competition for the worst ref in the world or....????????

The US "goal" was ruled offside, but you can very clearly see in the video that he wasn't.

YES 1 - 0!!!

America screwed out of another goal, was had for the lino but he should have got it right.

Quality first shot by Algeria though, unlucky to hit bar but America need to keep pressing and they should score.

E: We just had one disallowed.

b-but.. video review would ruin the integrity of the sport!!




e: lmao america has forgotten how to shoot


e: also altidore is complete shit

The United States literally cannot buy a goal. I'm sure even if they successfully bribed the entire Algerian team hurricane force winds would spontaneously erupt and prevent the ball from entering the Algerian goal.



And even if it did the refs would say it was offside

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

Third time's a charm.......right????

There's literally no reason in hell that they can't add video review challenges to this sport.

The game would generally remain unchanged. The only difference would be that each team would be allowed TWO challenges per game. If you want to dispute a call (goal, penalty, etc.), you can use one of those challenges. The call would then be reviewed by a panel and decided whether it will stand or not. If the challenge was good, then you get one challenge back and the correction.

This would add minimal delay to the game, since you would have a limited number of challenges you could use, so you would want to use them only when you strongly believe you are right. You would get rewarded for being right when the original call was wrong.

Plus it would preserve whatever shred of integrity is left in this sport.

no just do it like hockey, reviews of disputed goals only



gridiron-style reviewing wouldn't really work, the game isn't paced like that



e: also landon donovan broke twitter woot

e2:

I unironically hope England goes through and then gets knocked out on penalties against Germany.

heh

Jcap, it is a fast paced sport, hence why referees sometimes "play-on" when theres a foul, we do not like the flow of the game to be stopped. That is why video reviewing isnt in the sport.

Europa league, brought in 2 extra linesmen to stand next to the goal, they look if the ball crosses the line, and help aid the offside calls. The biggest problem in the game isnt offside calls, its whether the ball has crossed the line.

FIFA had the chance to incorporate goal line technology and the extra lino yet they declined, FIFA is just a bunch of suits. They also hate the English.

Cmon GHANA!
