Portugal has been so much better.
They deserve the win.

 

[RocknRola]

Extra-time....errr....time!

--

André Gomes. Literally 4/4 shots NOT being remotely dangerous.

 

[PtKid]

Goddamn Gomes! The dude can't hit one right

 

[Alex_Mexico]

Whats this new rule about substitutions in extra time? Whats the rule? You get an extra sub?

 

[RocknRola]

Yup.

3 during regular play + 1 if the game reaches extra time.

---

Oh, close one. He hit it sorta wrong, thankfully for us.

 

[Zasa]

Dios mío

 

[clemenx]

I feel extra time is getting increasingly common in internatiional competitions... I do not like this. Sucks overtime is awesome in every sport but Football.

If there's goals overtime is awesome but most of the time it leads to a sucky Pk round.

 

[Ingeniero]

Come on CR7.

 

[Alex_Mexico]

Yup.

3 during regular play + 1 if the game reaches extra time.

If you didnt spend all your 3 subs does that mean you get to keep those + your extra one? Or is it only for those who spent all of them in regular time?

I *think* it doesn't matter, you always get a +1 when you get to ET. So if you still ha 3, you now have 4. However I'm not 100% on this either, it's kinda new and hasn't been used much yet.

 

[BMO = GOAT]

Chile not substituting, probably playing for the penalty shootout. Hmm that can back fire on them tho, tired legs can make a mistake and give up a counter attack.

My tv commentators were talking about this but I wasnt paying attention and I think they were saying you get the extra sub if you spend your 3 but dont quote me on that.

 

[RocknRola]

FIFA should adopt, during ET, the rule that after the time runs out, the match only stops whenever the ball goes out of bound (corner, goal kick, throw). Would save the refs from a lot of decision making that can be contested AND force the teams to not just stall for time during ET.

 

[KingSnake]

Chile's style of (not) playing in the last minutes of the regular time and in ET bored me to death. I kind of want Portugal to score and end this before PKs.

 

[RocknRola]

Bruno Alves making sure no one misses Pepe tonight lol

---

Uuuuh. That looked like a penalty. Video ref sleeping on the job?

 

[clemenx]

Shouldn't VAR be used!?

 

[AcademicSaucer]

lol the VAR

 

[KingSnake]

That was penalty.

 

[v1lla21]

Hmm.

 

[Bamboo 竹]

This match is bought. Congrats to Portugal for that.

 

[denx]

WHY DONT THEY USE VAR IN THESE THINGS. FIFA U FUCKING USELESS

 

[RocknRola]

This match is bought. Congrats to Portugal for that.

lol come again?

 

[CMojicaAce]

Think that was a penalty.. VAR has been used for much less this tournament.

 

[jnWake]

Lmao at VAR. Useless pos.

 

[Cramoss]

That shit pissed me off so much

 

[Alex_Mexico]

Whats the point of the VAR if they dont check these plays??? That was a penalty!

 

[KingSnake]

I still don't understand who and how decides when to use VAR.

 

[AcademicSaucer]

I still don't understand who and how decides when to use VAR.

The referee when he wants

 

[RocknRola]

I still don't understand who and how decides when to use VAR.

The main ref. He's the one that picks when/if to use it.

For example, this penalty: if he had asked for further clarification it would have been called. Alas, he didn't. He acted like a dumb tough guy and Chile got fucked on that play.

 

[denx]

This referee is useless

 

[KingSnake]

The referee when he wants

That's stupid. An arrogant referee would make VAR useless for a game.

 

[clemenx]

Lmaoooo

 

[AcademicSaucer]

2 in a row

 

[Daphnes Nohansen Hyrule]

WTF

 

[v1lla21]

No mames, Chile!

 

[Syder]

This match has been so bad. A microcosm of this entire tournament.

 

[Art Teitlebaum]

Oh boy. That was crazy.

 

[RocknRola]

Heart attacks in that stadium right now

 

[denx]

That's stupid. An arrogant referee would make VAR useless for a game.

Yeah. I'm not against VAR but the current implementation is terrible. VAR should be used when the captain/coach wants to challenge a play.

 

[KingSnake]

So many chances for Chile.

 

[mike6467]

That's stupid. An arrogant referee would make VAR useless for a game.

Yeah, I'm confused. I thought the point was to serve as a check for the ref. This is like saying that the police can investigate themselves if they feel it's necessary, what's the point?

Holy shit that post.

 

[azyless]

Wow. Twice the post.

 

[AcademicSaucer]

I bet C. Ronaldo misses his penalty

 

[KingSnake]

Yeah. I'm not against VAR but the current implementation is terrible. VAR should be used when the captain/coach wants to challenge a play.

I like how is done in rugby. The referee still gets to call when it's used but the video referee can point out some more obvious phases. Like it was this penalty.

But I guess football referees are snowflakes.

 

[RocknRola]

Well, regardless of what happens now, allow to me to address my congrats to Chile on the entertaining game

May the better kickers win I guess!

 

[LegendofDragoonLives]

How the hell did that not go in in the end lol.. damn Chile

 

[clemenx]

The team who's viewing the VAR real time should be able to overrule anything when they fuck up, period. Why make it more complicated.

 

[PtKid]

Portugal started so well and then went to sleep...

 

[Beefy]

Hoddle is pissing me off

 

[daxy]

After 110 minutes, the ref just didn't want to be the one deciding the game probably. This happened before VAR too. Unsurprising.
