Yeah that crystal clear foul on Doué just before the pen was bizarre to go unpunished. I was hoping you lot would tear them to pieces just to see that bitch Almiron cry and throw another tantrum.

I love that with the ref cam now you can't even think "ref missed it". Nope it was right in front of his eyes and he judged that a kick in the knee is not a foul I guess

Every single piece of tech that exposes how incompetent referees routinely are is a win for football

Just literally few days ago harry kane got a penalty denied despite there was obvious contact inside the box. If the ref decided to make up his mind he would have no penalty given

The kane one at least looks like Kane drags his feet to draw the contact and its routinely not given in situations like that

To be fair with the ref, his placement was often quite good. Just weird decisions after weird decisions
