Day 4: Morocco vs Croatia | Germany vs Japan | Spain vs Costa Rica | Belgium vs Canada

How is that a pen? He slows down his run to get contact, barely any contact
 
I am genuinely struggling to understand how that isn't a penalty

Its one of those stupid unwritten rules of once you've been awarded a penalty in the game. It's very difficult to get a second.
 
What are people expecting from a guy who whistled full time here?

So that's one penalty Canada got and two Canada should have gotten. Hmpf.

Was the crowd chanting V-A-R ahead of that check btw? I couldn't make it out and then they cheered when the VAR check was announced.
 
Belgium really lucky that wasn’t a penalty. Type of decision that the smaller teams seem to be getting in this WC. Maybe the refs feeling sorry for Belgium here. Canada look decent. Extremely athletic team. Can imagine them being a handful in the later stages of the game if they maintain these levels
