I think Bednarek will be steaming mad about that piece of reffing for the second goal.

Henrik Larsson has zero personality. Evra is a lad!

Didn’t Evra make a patronising comment about Eni Aluko, the other day?
I can imagine the uproar if someone had acted like that towards a black pundit, rather than a woman.

Agree. Considering he's being handsomely paid to be there, he looks miserable as ****.

Just watched the clip. Nothing in it at all.

Just saw it. Understandably Bednarek clearly had no idea he was there. You dont watch for players that arent on the pitch....

Gotta drug-test these Russians!

Ha. Hell of a game, fair play to them. Absolutely smashing it so far - and their own fans and media were slaying them pre-tournament apparently!

And that is why VAR is a good thing.

Yep the correct use of VAR

 

[Saints Fan4Life]

These refs are ****ing useless.

I agree, but Kane was rock bottomed last night by the Tunisian guy and yet wasn’t given as a foul but yet they can reverse that decision for Egypt, it’s laughable.

I'd much rather they went on the side of caution, and 1 out of 3 is better than 0 out of 3.

it could also be that they've learned something from their mistakes.

There’s nothing anyone can say regarding the challenge on Kane to make me see things any differently. It should of been given without the help of VAR, but being able to review the incident and still not give it as a penalty is simply not acceptable.

I agree, VAR will definitely work for those decisions in the future as it did today.

Still feel he should have been more aware and could have possibly got to it before Niang if he had been alert.

Perhaps VAR will reduce home advantage?

 

[SaintinNZ]

At least VAR was in use today, I'm 99% convinced that there was no VAR on the england game. Dont recall seeing the ref touching his ear or making any indications of a decision being checked. Possibly some tech problem that they didn't want to highlight. Bet we won't see that again in the next game.
