#USMNT striker Folarin Balogun on his immediate reaction to red card: “I think it was just important to stay calm. I never want to react out of anger and out of emotion. There’s still lots of people we’re inspiring, little kids, boys and girls who are watching, and we have to show them the correct way to handle things, even when you think it's unjust.” On shaking ref’s hand postgame: “As said, you can feel like something, injustice can happen to you. It’s not an excuse to be disrespectful… I'm aware that the World Cup might be the first time a lot of American viewers are tuning in. So it's important just to show people, whether things happen to you, good or bad, just to continue to be yourself.”

we finally have the technology to 100% prove that the ball was touched by the croatian player

@RealSkipBayless They don’t know how much time is left but they have a chip in the ball to tell you Croatia is offsides.

I DON'T UNDERSTAND: FIRST, how was Croatia allowed to score the potentially tying goal with beyond the allotted 10+ minutes of stoppage time??? Do refs just guess or let the trailing team have 1 more possession? Insane time-keeping.

Oh my god it’s cause it knicked that guy in the head who missed heading it? Devastating

@stoolpresidente It’s easy. If it’s an exciting play then it’s offsides.

It’s so frustrating when I don’t even know what they are looking at it. But having said that how was that offsides? Total bullshit

@stoolpresidente Nothing exciting counts in fifa. If it’s an exciting play you can guarantee it will be called back.

Every fucking game like clockwork. Literally even said 93rd minute.

@espn @andydaviesref

"VAR made their recommendation to the referee based on slow-motion and still replays, which is not aligned with VAR protocols." @andydaviesref believes VAR made the incorrect decision on Folarin Balogun's red card. spr.ly/6016BDF43g

I would grant that appeal

The sports world couldn't believe Flo Balogun was sent off with a red card. Balogun will be suspended for the USMNT's R16 game vs. Belgium.

We are gonna smoke Belgium #usa

@BarstoolBigCat @BelongiaZach This happened earlier and no card was given not even a yellow Pulisic was taken to the ground on a breakaway it’s BS

Me and the boys pulling up to FIFA HQ to file the Balogun appeal

Red card is insane man! 👎🏾👎🏾

You should need to punch somebody in the nuts for a red card to be issued. Or have it be a 5 minute penalty. But to lose a guy for the entire game is insane. We may have to go to war if we lose this screw job.

@nflcommish - When the Indiana Bears move to their new home I’d like to request an expansion for a 33rd NFL team named the Chicago Bears. We’ll build a beautiful new dome stadium fit for year round events in the 3rd largest US city (Chicago). #chicagobears @BarstoolBigCat

@okayihaveone @Rate_the_Refs @okayihaveone - Might want to check on your uncle. Ball don’t lie.

@okayihaveone @Rate_the_Refs True. Ball(s) don’t lie. You might be getting a new uncle if ND wins.

Under thrown balls should not be bailed out by a pass interference call. Terrible ball placement and the contact from Notre Dame did not effect the interception in anyway.

@BrettCurrancy @united @united - That would be incredible if I could sit next to my cutie @ZenaidaCordova on the way home.

Hey @united my best friends just got engaged!! as the best man i need a favor...my boy is first class on his way back from Hawaii to Chicago, his fiancé is in low class... how bout a free upgrade for her? its only one flight you guys can swing it right? @TimLullo
