    Kane gets tackled in the box but no penalty.  Where was stupid ass VAR on that one????
    England missed 3 very good opportunities to put it in the box and they didn't...
    That's not the point.  A guy gets straight up tackled American football style on a corner and nothing was called.  Even with this VAR nonsense which is supposed to pick up fouls like that.
    You can’t let the official make or break your chances, even if it’s some bogus virtual crap. At this level, you get 3 chances you better convert.

    No shit.  Didn't say anything about this being an excuse for blowing those other 3 chances.  Just pointing out how ridiculous this VAR nonsense is....they have called penalties for far less in the tourney so far but they miss a straight up takedown in the box.

    The announcing team made mention of the tackles and mentioned that the ref was going to let them play through like that.  At least they were consistent?

    Columbia took a red card in the first few minutes which also resulted in a penalty kick (goal)

    I am finding it hard to pick a favourite.
    All the top teams have been unimpressive.
    Aussies robbed by that VAR decision.

    Morocco were unlucky to lose that one. Portugal didn’t look very convincing at all.
