    My mistake Dave - I thought you were referring to the Neymar dive and yes Belgium were lucky on that one.

    Incredible defence from Belgium. That was massively impressive. That is really going to take it out of them though! Physically and mentally knackering. :emoticon-0148-yes:

    I'm not having a go at you FML I just think it's sad when we have the chance to get most decisions right ,it gets cocked up time and time again.

    I've been disappointed with VAR to be honest and I was hoping for much more from its use.
    Should be a CRACKING semi final between the European neighbours. <ok>

    I don't understand how they have got it so wrong. It seems impossible to do.

    The rugby tackling calls have gotten slightly better after the first round of games. They really need to be using it to book divers and play acting. The general fouls that get reviewed and then ignored are unforgivable though. Most of them aren't even opinion, madness.

    Courtois should get MotM - he made 8 saves.
    Just watching the Jesus incident and should have been a penalty.

    I couldn't see Belgium holding them off in Extra time, but if it had gone into that, and going to Pens. I would have fancied Belgium. He was incredible tonight.

    That final save that he tipped over the bar, if he was 6'5" that would have been a goal.

    Outrageous save.

    Class to clarify and explain his comments on Pickford. Big man to add that to the end, and explain what he meant in his comment.
