@MoeketsiLikhoel And on Messi I said it was a clear yellow card. You can’t even listen.

@RefereeC21621 You say it was accidental but doesn't matter,in Messi one you said he couldn't get cautioned because it was not intentional, he went for the ball,he retracted his foot blah,blah....what is different

Red card was given to Qatar. #canada #qatar #redcard #worldcup #worldcup2026

@matchdaymatt26 Slightest contact? He clipped his leg. Standard foul. He didn’t feel anything. This is exactly like the 2006 WC final penalty foul…

@RefereeC21621 why is the attacker rewarded for drawing contact when he’s in behind? the canada player feels the slightest contact and goes down. but when that happens in the box, they say it’s not enough for a foul. you’re gonna benefit a lot more from getting a player sent off than scoring

@MoeketsiLikhoel The DOGSO is the difference. Take your blah blah and learn basic laws. Unbelievable honestly….

@notjustdad @BBCSport Pundits base opinions on emotions. They don’t know the laws, guidelines or criteria. They are there for entertainment, not to teach.

@RefereeC21621 How does one balance? This rule defies nature. As a result we have the absurd sight of defenders with arms behind their backs which, frankly, compromises their ability. This ruling hasn’t erased controversy. Pundits on @BBCSport weren’t comfortable with it, although it’s the law.

Penalty was called for South Africa. #czech #czechia #southafrica #penalty worldcup2026

@smbdyuusd2knw Completely incorrect. That matters nothing at all. This is a handball anywhere.

@RefereeC21621 Unfortunately just like accidentally triping a person on tour to a goal scoring opportunity (which happened to sa in their last game) if the opponent disrupts the opportunity illegally (even if it was a mistake) it’s a foul.

@notjustdad Don’t extend it to the side. This is 100 % handball and several identical situations are shown at referee courses such as UEFA RAP.

@RefereeC21621 Where, prey, are defenders to naturally place their arms? Very harsh penalty.

Red card was given to Bosnia and Herzegovina. #switzerland #bosniaandherzegovina #redcard #worldcup #worldcup2026

@quinngreg GK must have at least part of 1 foot behind, on or above the line… none were.

England’s penalty was retaken. #croatia #england #kane #penalty #worldcup2026

Messi didnt get a penalty here. #argentina #algeria #messi #leomessi #worldcup2026

@FutOffsides SAOT isn’t based on the frame freeze. It is based on the chip. The image you see is just for purposes of understanding what they are showing…

🚨❌ SAOT keeps making mistakes with frame selection in the World Cup. 📸 In the frame chosen for Algeria’s disallowed goal there is NO contact with the ball yet. 👉 It’s extremely hard to understand how a VAR official could miss such an obvious issue. x.com/FootOffsides/s…

Messi didnt get any card here. #argentina #algeria #messi #leomessi #worldcup2026

@covenantofeazy Because VAR doesn’t intevene on reckless challenges (yellow cards). It doesn’t need any indication what so ever.

@RefereeC21621 You did not indicate in your analysis why VAR did not take a look at it Because the ref missed the tackle

Nothing was called here. #france #senegal #worldcup #freekick #worldcup2026

@djaidyj @footyinsider247 @HACKETTREF And all others show BLATANT contact…

@footyinsider247 @HACKETTREF there's an angle that shows ZERO contact

🤬 "The 𝐖𝐎𝐑𝐒𝐓" - Ex-PL ref @HACKETTREF lays into France vs Senegal official after Kylian Mbappe penalty shocker.

@spaulinnit @footyinsider247 @HACKETTREF Goal kick and penalty kick signals are basically the same… he should have done a washout signal.

@footyinsider247 @HACKETTREF He changed it to a goalkick whilst giving the signal for a penalty.

Mbappé didn’t get a penalty. #france #senegal #mbappé #mane #worldcup2026
