that was way too easy, why didn't someone run with him?

just lazy from Andersen

Who was that defender who eased up? Looked like he gave up. Surely game over for the danes now.

Andersen, just let him go, didn't look to be putting any effort in at all.

What a fall from thinking you scored, to cause a penalty and a goal for your opponent and then letting Musiala stroll past to bury Germany's second.

Bottled it.

Havertz could be the difference for Germany when they play Spain.

Misses way too many chances.

I want to hear what Christina Unkel has to say and watch Roy Keane and Ange vehemently disagree

She's interesting to listen to, but her repeated use of jargon and un-necessary words obscures her points at times

She pretty much always agrees with VAR no matter how bonkers the decision is. I get rules are rules but sometimes just use a bit of common sense. And the rules themselves sometimes are ridiculous. Keane and Ange were right, if that wasn’t given as a penalty no one would complain.

doing the latter undermines the former

Sometimes the rule itself is wrong and needs to be changed. The NHL regularly changes rules in the middle of the season. No reason why football can’t do it if something doesn’t make sense.

I agree, but they should always be enforced as written.

100%, but the ref isn't there to say the rule is wrong, he's there to implement the rules in their current form no matter how stupid they are.

The issue I have with the penalty is that Oliver deemed it no penalty. VAR was brought in to correct mistakes, incidents that are clear and obvious. I don’t see how Germany’s penalty falls into that category. Contentious and debatable at best. As Ange said, seems like they are sometimes trying to re-referee matches. Same with the Georgia penalty against Portugal.

Wonder what Vicario made of that being given as a free kick

That was absolutely pathetic, compared to what Vicario have had to do deal with, and get nothing!

 

[Bishop]

Surely if the lightning is that much of a threat the stadium should be evacuated?

The stands are grounded.
