So VAR very questionable for that Swiss penalty (looked like a clear offside in the build up), doesn't inspire confidence that we won't see reffing shenanigans in this tournament.

If a goal like that is scored against us I'll moan about it for weeks.

Infantino is Swiss. Of course they get a dodgy penalty.

Cracks me up; “the technology is now so good, it cannot be questioned”

Just ignore the evidence of your eyes you idiots and give us your money.

Ugh, second half.

I swear it’s about the fifth half.

Stadium’s two thirds empty. Embarrassing

This game is gash. Swiss are meh, Qatar just making up the numbers

I'm not sure Qatar are selling out a 70k stadium here either tbh and thats before the stupid pricing and **** fan allocations.

(although I think the Swiss would travel in decent numbers anywhere in Europe).

Might watch a bit of Brazil tonight, but leaning more and more towards not bothering until these silly group games are over.

Has the semi-automated still for the onside call for the penalty been shown?

Nope.

 

[tomw24]

Nope.

Stupid really. I've seen the incident and it's incredibly tight. From the angle shown it looks off but it's not at the best angle to judge it.

Brazil v Morocco would be a decent game at any World Cup.

Netherlands v Japan should be a good one tomorrow too.

Agree decent games are a bit more sparse though, but I can easily pick some I want to watch. Thats said Qatar v Switzerland is definitely a 'I am watching this because I have nothing else to do' kind of game.

FIFA are corrupt. Games get rigged. Sorry Tom. It’s just the rotten way of things.

Agreed, though this has been better than I was expecting. Extremely low expectations admittedly.

To be fair it’s filled up a bit since I posted. Seems like half the stadium came out ten mins late for the second half. Can’t blame them.

Can’t recall seeing such a negative football team as this Qatar side.

I think they've had a bit of a go the last 15-20. Just massively lacking quality.

Yep. Sending more bodies forward now but bit too late.
