Derbados Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 This ref looks like a frightened 12 year old, absolute gutless coward. Where the **** do they find these people?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sith Happens Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 I don't get it. Var is for potential red cards. If its not a red then you cant give a yellow surely? If you can refs will see it as a loophole and use it for yellows. Var equals very average referee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gritstone Ram Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 I don't think Ali is fit. I have seen plenty of players sent off for less than that. Colombia are dirty cheats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alph Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 Fairly good from England so far. Lingard looks like he could run this game. They just can't get near him. Need him on the ball more. Why are Colombia looking to turn this nasty? Look at that from a coach on a player! Why?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Van der MoodHoover Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 Just shown a Colombia coach shoulder barging sterling as he trotted off. Surely some action needs to be taken? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kernow Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 ITV have just shown a Colombia coach, waiting for Sterling at half-time, drop his shoulder into him as he ran past then claim to the referee that Sterling instigated it. Colombia's game plan is clear as day. Provoke England into a reaction and perhaps try to break if they get the chance. Their primary intention though is to wind up the English players and get one sent off. It's pathetic. If Colombia do progress tonight then I'll be 100% rooting for Sweden in the quarters. This Colombia side deserve absolutely nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bris Vegas Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 Bizarre decision to go to VAR and award a yellow card for a headbutt. If that was Neymar, he would have done 6 rolls and the stretcher would have been on followed by an ambulance on stand-by. Madness. England look solid enough but they're lacking with Alli totally ineffective. Sterling is an amazing poacher, he's proved that with his goals for Man City. What he isn't is a David Silva instigating attacks and controlling the tempo. Stop giving Sterling the ball 40 yards from goal and get him playing on the last man. Replace Alli for Loftus-Cheek and look to build attacks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair I've been impressed by England not getting involved too much. Colombia have been pretty incessant with their unsporting behaviour from kick off and you'd have to be absolutely stone cold not to react sometimes. Colombia have been cynical cos they know they're weaker than England, look at Falcao following through into Deli's knee. We're much the better team, just have to be a bit cooler without losing tempo cos we look great tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I don't think we've really engaged. If we are getting headbutted, pushed and barged off the ball then there's going to be appeals to the ref. The stop start nature is mostly them fouling. We can't help that. When England have had the ball they've been composed. No sign of losing the plot. Fairly comfortable. Just need a tighter touch from Sterling and more of Lingard on the ball. Alli needs to relax too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
