Well, some of us have actually played the game
Well next time you play, I wouldn’t advise you to blatantly reach out with your arm to block your opponent after you get beat in the box.
Maybe if I watched Neymar more often, I wouldn’t give him the benefit of the doubt that he was actually impeded. Obviously the ref didn’t think so on replay, but that ref lost credibility for me as the match went on.
But really this is much ado about nothing. I was just fired up after seeing CR get what they deserved for laying on the ground so much. Sorry for clogging up the thread.

I think we can all agree that the ref embarrassed himself with his personal vendetta against Neymar.

Damn man, get off Neymar's dick.

Neymar was still on the pitch after multiple dives, a kick out, and multiple shows of dissent. The ref embarrassed himself, alright, but not by going after Neymar, but by failing to send of Neymar and Marcelo.

Damn you are still melting.
Neymar definitely got the raw end of the deal in that game. Should have been 5-0. You are blinded by your hate.

I only watched the second half, but there were as many (or more) fouls by Brazil as by Costa Rica.
If Neymar could convert his good chances, yes.
But he saved his stat-padding goal for garbage time, after the game was already locked up.

Lexi just said he thought it was a foul and an embellishment. Said that the officials got the call correct. I think this is the prevailing thought amongst people that know the game.

Sounds like a contradiction.

Only if you don’t know what the words mean.
It was a foul and an embellishment, which is why it should be a penalty. If a foul in the box is a penalty, then it’s a penalty.
It’s striking to me that people wouldn’t award a penalty in a goal scoring situation because the effects of the foul were embellished, but see nothing wrong with using VAR to award a penalty in a non-scoring situation. Penalties should be about whether a goal scoring chance was illegally thwarted, or what’s the justification?

How about the part where he said the officials got it correct? The officials waved the penalty off after VAR. So he thought it was a foul, yet the officials got it right by not awarding the penalty even though it was a foul?

I’m not sure if he actually said that as much is I was insinuating that. Sorry for the confusion

That’s what I don’t get. Why does a soft foul that at least appeared in real time to thwart a goal scoring opportunity not get awarded a penalty, but another foul, that didn’t prevent anything but a goal kick, get awarded a penalty?
And everybody thinks that’s great? I’m just saying I disagree. To me, it should be about whether a goal scoring opportunity was thwarted, because you’re giving them a free kick at goal in consequence.
I’m not trying to re-hash the argument from earlier. If you don’t think Neymar was fouled and that it was just a dive, there’s nothing to talk about. In that case, no penalty and a yellow card.
