Neymar gets lucky with his fluffed shot. 3. Never, ever a penalty and Fred should have been booked for simulation. 4. Neymar should have been made to re-take the penalty after his stupid run up. 5. Croatia unlucky to not get the equaliser at 2-1 down. Ref had a shocker because he got the 2 most important decisions wrong. Neymar staying on had a gigantic effect on the game and the penalty? It turned the game on its head completely. |
1- I dont think he shouldve been given even a yellow card he just had his arm there for protection it was more Modrics fault running into his arms than Neymar making a motion to hit him.
2- Neymar gets lucky a lot it seens, cause he scores goals like that all the time...
3- Ye the ref was bad everyone knew he was even before the match started and it was transparent during the match he was buckling under the pression of reffing a game of such importance.
4-No he shouldnt, rules clearly state the player can do whatever the fuck he wants up until he reaches the ball, if during the kick motion he decides to do any time of trick than its not allowed while hes running to the ball he can stop and change speed, do a cartweel or whatever.
5- Brazil unlucky not to score before Croatia scored the first and even more unlucky that Marcelo scored an own goal.
Stop ranting ppl it was a good match, Brazil played better and Croatia has a solid team, enought about the ref, its not the first nor the last time well see refs screwing up in the World Cup its football we know refs are bad.

The penalty was bulshit that much isnt questionable but the denied goal wast a denied goal as the match had been stopped well before Croatia scored and that one was a very clear foul on Julio Cesar so theres nothing wrong there.
