Mox Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 So the Pavon potential penalty doesn't go to VAR but the Griezmann one did, how does that work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The second 'penalty' was more of a penalty than the accidental contact of the first one. (Fair chuffed for Iceland though. ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoonTheSlope Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 A taxi drove right through a group of mainly Mexicans.

kumnio Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 It didnt look deliberate either, it was low speed and idiotic. Id wildly guess than the guy fell asleep and fucked up. If that was an attack, the guy must be the worst attacker ever, and then the comedy run away, he is lucky the Russians didnt kill him.

Do you want the best 32 /48 teams or a fair representation of countries from each zone? There is no doubt that Italy, Netherlands and other European countries are better than most of the African and Asia countries as the finals.
