World Cup 2026

[Libby]

Surprised these ****s even made it in when Nigeria didn’t

Finished a point behind South Africa in qualifying and then lost a play off to DR Congo on penalties.

9 direct qualifiers from Africa is absurd tbh.

A good old-fashioned long VAR check over very little is what this match needs. Might as well send him off now you’ve checked the little screen.

Red card for that

 

[Libby]

Absolute nonsense decision.

 

[THE FOOL]

****ing hell. Going to be a long old tournament if this games anything to go on.

How is that possibly a red card. Why is the ref expert a yank bird for ****s sake

 

[Star of David Bardsley]

Christina the refereeing expert agreed.

 

[brb]

Not going to be many players left on the pitch with the var interventions lol.

 

[Star of David Bardsley]

Be good if South Africa go full Sheffield United and get it abandoned

 

[Star of David Bardsley]

You’d be ****ing fuming if you were on over 2.5

Ref has to speak not in his language to a crowd that isn't even English, makes sense.

 

[brb]

Can't wait to hear Keane's view on that sending off.

That bit cracked me up

He didn't seem to know what to say, i didn't know whether to laugh or feel sorry for him.

There again, i don't think i'll ever feel sorry for a referee.

 

[brb]

****ing hell 3 reds

 

[Star of David Bardsley]

Think a red is fair enough for that one tbh. Stupid challenge in the situation. He’s only going to smash it wide.

[Star of David Bardsley]

Worst free kick the World Cup has ever seen

 

[ToonArmy1892]

Mental ref has livened it up a bit, i suppose.
