Father Dougal McGuire Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 I cannot get over that referee blowing for full time. Goals, subs and VAR incidents. The game should still be playing 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ForzaDundee Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Watch the video. This is the freekick that leads to the penalty. Surely VAR could look at that in the build-up to the penalty. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought Scotland have been a little bit poor at times in this tournament in possession. Whilst it needs to be used to stop goalkeepers jumping 4 feet off their line before a kick, that clearly wasn't the case here and it was not clear and obvious. Would have been nice to have had the 15 minutes of injury time that should have been played though 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Retake is justifiable rules-wise. Don't talk shite. The keeper can't wait until the player strikes the ball to move. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not giving the Argies that penalty was a hilariously bad decision. The rules are shite but that’s not VAR’s issue. I disagree. If it takes a full 8 minutes to make a decision and carry out the resulting award when it should have taken two at the very most, it's not effective at all. Especially when that 8 minutes does not then get added on at the other end. If this is the way forward, then they HAVE to pause the clock for VAR decisions until the point where play is restarted again. That is the only way it will ever be effective or approach efficient. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll see it all the time in work/personal life "Good job mate" or "nice hair cut" etc only to get a reply of "Its nothing", "not a big deal", "Ohhh I don't like it". The reason I am saying this is I think its a reason for our failures at many sports across my lifetime. We just don't have faith in ourselves as people, these doubts then lead to poor performance in work/life/sport and unfortunately poor mental health for much of our population. Sweeping generalisation it was just shite management. The reason we suck at football is down to lack of funding and good facilities. If anything we are overconfident and arrogant towards other nations. Completely disagree. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have just described the long-acknowledged Scottish Cringe, a chronic condition in which this nation and much of its population bow in obsequious and cringeing respect to their Superiors, all the while wearing their self-loathing like a badge of pride. They go by various names...Unionists, Royalists, Anglophiles, Shitebags, Quislings, whatever, and they infest the letters pages of the Scottish press and the airwaves on any given day Too wee, too poor, too thick; verminous beggars, that's us. No wonder it's difficult for our weans to get out there and compete when so many Scots prefer to walk on their knees. The Enemy Within and no mistake. Completely agree. The Scottish Cringe (never heard of that term before) is the perfect summation of what I learned. From when I was at school people got slagged/bullied/battered for being smart and knowing the answers in class. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blame the manager and players who bottled a three goal lead, not the officials who were simply, correctly, doing their job. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Flash Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Given the lack of stoppage time, Scotland were 3-0 up with effectively 10 minutes left. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virtual Insanity Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 The only thing worse than the absolute farcical end to that game is people absolutely desperate to defend it and lay the blame all on Scotland, just another aspect of the Scottish cringe. We were cheated by outrageously poor officiating - on the free kick being taken in the middle of our substitution, on the interpretation of Alexander being off her line, on the absolutely absurd lack of injury time. That has to go down as the most ridiculous end to a football game I've ever seen. The rules for goalkeepers at penalties have been relaxed. So how many penalties were re-taken at last year's men's world cup for goalkeepers being off their line? The fact that the biggest competition in the history of the women's game is being used as an experiment like this by FIFA for laws introduced 2 weeks ago is a disgrace. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
