Most blatant handball ever. Walsh didn't even mask it.
WWC23 | England v Spain - Spain win the World Cup - and Rubiales gets sacked
- Thread starter jojojo
- Start date
Will be a pen. Moves towards the ball yeah.
If VAR cannot make decision, what's the use of it?
Blatant pen. Commentator saying not much she could have done to avoid it. Clueless.
Yeah, I dont watch much womens football, but she has always stood out. But shes been terrible today, playing passes putting colleagues into trouble constantly and out of position.
feck sake
There isn't much difference between this one and United's yesterday.
We need mic'ed up refs in the PL
I dunno, on the one hand its not much of an unnatural position... on the other hand, she does move her hand towards the ball and doesn't look to get it out of the way.
Clear penalty.
That should be a pen, sadly.
Man, this is what I hate about the process of the VAR. Stadiums should just ask the field referee to talk straight to the mic as both that person and the VAR watch the replay on the big screen, like in rugby. Too much time wasted in the way it's done now.
If it takes 5 minutes for the VAR how can it be clear and obvious.
Looks like a penalty.
If thats given then why wasn't ours from romero yesterday.
Rules are the same right?
Rules are the same right?
One of those angles has it looking like she moved her hand to the ball?
So many sitting in VAR with all those monitors and cannot make a decison.
Huge difference in my book - this one's a bit more borderline, while yesterdays was blatant.
holy feck ref, watch it a few more times.
Watching the replay from behind wasn't sure on my previous comment, but this other angle looks like she moves her arm towards it.
If it’s taking this long to decide, how can it be considered “a clear and obvious error”?
Surprised that the decision is taking so long. Seems very clear cut.
Pen unfortunately.
Bullshit
The ref speaks 
fecking joke
Come on Mary
Come on, miss!
Less of a pen than ours yesterday but still a pen
My point was how they couldn't give the one yesterday but give this one.
why does she have to announce it. Just point to penalty spot.
It is a pen by the letter of the law...
How many times do you need to see it? It's fairly obvious.
Can't help but compare that handball to yesterday...
In their defence, it is the World Cup final... you want to get it right.
I mean there was no doubt. Goalkeeper will save though
It's night and day. If yesterday's wasn't a penalty never in million years should this one be.
What's with the announcement like a supermarket supervisor
That's a pen and yesterday wasn't? I don't understand the rules anymore.
If it takes that long is it a clear and ob error? Thought it was a pen though
