@Blue answer my question - what about the emotion of the team that the disallowed goal is scored against? what about the injustice for them?

It's okay if Spain is sad.

how about don't bait anyone and then get pissy when they give you a reply you dont like?

Nah, I'm just sick of him picking on me for anything he doesn't agree with. Gets old.

You do realize you don't have to be a melt all your life.

You also don't need to reply to "the bait"

Just stop.

You are so obnoxious it's borderline hilarious. You are publicly asking for a truce, yet call me a melt.

If having teams celebrate a disallowed goal is an argument against VAR I don't understand. For decades teams have been celebrating goals only to look around and see the linesman had his flag up, admittedly not for the same length of time but the moment of exhilaration being cut short is nothing new.

Isco is so nice, what a beautiful player to watch. So silky.

HAHA get outta here.

You can't pick and choose what it's for. You can't allow it for penalties which leads to goals and then say it's not allowed to disallow goals that should be ruled out correctly  

What about the emotion of Spain  ?

Still waiting @Blue

This is a good game. Iran making everyone think they can score a goal. Hopefully they get it.

You are a liar, who tries to rile the emotions of others, and say stupid shit like a goal should be allowed incorrectly because of the way the team celebrated it.

I don't exactly get the question but if its what I'm thinking, yes you can go both ways. Its all a preference thing though. Especially in a tournament in the world cup - I don't want to wait in suspense for a goal that I think was scored for it to be ruled out in 30 seconds by VAR. Its the way I prefer it. 

For me, football doesn't have to be all fixed. I personally don't have a problem with how VAR has been utilised in this tournament, its been well used, but I still see some flaws that will ruin the flow of the game in my opinion.

Did you really die in a car accident then? 

[Dr. Gonzo]

The only legitimate argument I can see for wanting referee errors is to allow for "human error" which allows for matches to be fixed more easily. But other than that, there's no reason.

@Eco @Blue let's leave it there please.

Someone can't tell what a joke is meant to be. Even if that backfired.

Cue the upcoming post where you claim that I'm the joke.

Honestly, just stop @Eco

You're just as bad as I am in this case. You are blinded.

What an opportunity that was. This Iran team can actually play when they want to.

[Chaaay AFC]

Iran have some decent quality, they have been great since the Spain goal.

If that cross was scored, pretty sure Pique would have nightmares for the next few months/years.

How Iran are trailing this Im not so sure.. 

[Guest]

I have heard good things about Sardar Azmoun before the tournament. I am not disappointed. He's quality.

[6666]

Iran are much better at attacking than they pretend they are. Unfortunate not to have gotten a goal so far.

[Stan]

Credit to Iran - they've taken this group right to the end with the way results have worked out sort of in their favour and they've still got a chance of qualifying, albeit slim. 

Can't see Portugal losing to Iran but can see that game being another 1-0.

Indeed, especially as they will have to go for it if the score stays the same.
