What is the point in VAR if they can't overturn that.

Now why cant VAR be used to yellow card a player for a deliberate dive. Also why can’t it be used for a foul (not a foul) that leads to a goal?

Wow, France cheat to score and they aren't allowed to do anything with VAR. That'll be controversial if it wins it.

If they've got VAR, deliberate diving should be relayed to the ref. Book the player, no free kick, no goal ensuing.

And the French guy (Umtiti?) was stood offside when it was taken and challenges, I don’t get why that is not offside?

That defender with the pony tail put in a great last ditch to prevent a 2 vs 1, great defending

Exactly. How difficult is it. The whole point is important games like this aren't won in controversial circumstances.

The Dutch guy that did England’s quarter final (Keipers?) is the best ref think he’s 4th official should be reffing!

To be honest I doubt they’d overturn the decision anyway

It has at times, but it's just been far too inconsistent.

Top player, Perisiic. Glad for their fans. Adrian Chile's will have gone ballistic!

He's going for a look

Wonder if he won't give it due to that free kick they scored from

Jesus, they're desperate for France to win this. Sorry, that's not a penalty.

It looked like a pen, had his arm out and it blocked it from a dangerous position

Accidental obviously, but it did divert the ball significantly from it's true direction.

Always thought he would give it once they had another look.
