@mad4vols , congrats, just saw where you won the football score contest a few weeks back

Go Ecuador.

 

[NorCalVol67]

Still doesn’t feel like a World Cup to me.

It’s freaking November.

 

[Nash_Vol97]

Well that was quick. Ecuador up 1-0 after 3 min.

Not so fast

Not so fast

VAR making its presence known already. Stupidest rule in soccer IMO. Happened in a Chelsea vs Spurs match last year that helped Chelsea and I thought even then it was bad.

SEC officiating invited to this World Cup?

Terrible rule.

 

[Nash_Vol97]

Ball don’t lie.

 

[ENGRVOL]

Should be red

 

[MAD]

Everything feels corrupt.

 

[Nash_Vol97]

That was the slowest run up and chillest penalty shot I’ve seen in a while

Not sure what the issue with the call is. The Ecuadorian player was clearly offsides, just initially a little confusing because the keeper was off the line.

Nice goal by Valencia there. Dude is pretty good

Thank goodness, there were rumors that Ecuador was being paid off to lose.

Qatar showing how much they belong in the World Cup.

Nothing confusing about the call after the replay, just have never been a fan of that rule.

England's goalie depth is crazy.

Kane to wear armband despite yellow-card risk

Qatar rightfully deserves all these shots they can get.
