Just treat it like a telenovela and not a sport played by some of the best athletes in the world.

I’d say this game has delivered everything a fan could want.

Are you under the impression fouls in the box are from players not trying to make plays on the ball?

That’s called in almost every professional league. Kane never touched the ball and kicked the attacker’s foot.


But if Kane is going for the ball, and the opposing player throws his leg above Kane's, how can that be deemed ill intent?

He didn't just haul off and kick him for the shite of it.

Of all the physical play I've seen let go this match, to call that one seems fishy.

VAR needs to go away. That’s not a foul. Kane was clearly making a play on the ball and the defender comes from behind him

That was the targeting rule of soccer

I would not want to be an England fan in there tonight no matter the outcome. I saw some poor little girl in there cheering the Three Lions on. Scary stuff for sure.

There needs to be massive changes to the use of VAR. This shite is against the spirit of the game. In no world is that a penalty

Stationary.. making a play on the ball.

Nobody should be able to come from behind you and force a foul.
