You have to guess the exact referee for each game by filling in the form. Just insert your name, or, if you want, a nickname (it must be always the same for all your future predictions) and then for each game just write down the referee and his nationality in brackets. Please write the name of a referee in a clear way, we will try always to support your choice, but don't make it impossible for us.
Example: Felix Brych (GER), Joel Aguilar (SLV), and so on.
Example: Felix Brych (GER), Joel Aguilar (SLV), and so on.
Points will be assigned according to the following pattern (new rules after group stage):
10 points for having guessed the exact referee of a match
5 point if a referee from the same confederation of the one guessed will be in charge of the specific game
2 points if a guessed referee for a game will get a game in the same round (for example, the whole round of 16)
In order to give you more time, given the short period for predictions, as soon as the first appointment for Round of 16 will be released, the form will be annulled and your predictions wont be accepted.
The day of release for the first appointment of Round of 16 is 28 June.

Geiger for Brazil vs. Germany.
ReplyDeleteBrazil won't accept a UEFA ref. Unfortunately.
I hope so! He was the 4th official for *that* Brazil Germany game last time out, though; maybe he brings up bad memories for Brazil.
DeleteI could also see Faghani there perhaps, though on a day shorter rest than the others.
DeleteOT : Argentina usually accepts UEFA referees, isn't it?? 🤔
DeleteAlmost impossible to have Geiger/Faghani for a game between Germany and Brazil. Both Faghani and Geiger are in charge of a Brazilian/German game on MD3. I see no chance to appoint a referee who is not from UEFA.

I guess I'll say mine:
ReplyDeleteFrance - Argentina: Bakary Gassama
Uruguay - Portugal: Joel Aguilar
Spain - Russia: Szymon Mariciniak
Croatia - Denmark: Bjorn Kuipers
Thoughts...
OT
ReplyDeleteWould be intresting to know how FIFA makes the VAR appointments when it comes to make sure the referees dosn’t have the same countries too many times. Marocco who where angry on VAR system and that it wasn’t used when they think it should have. The had Zwayer as main VAR all 3 games. Just an intresting that FIFA might need to fix for upcomming tournaments
I didn't make the old predictions. Could I try with these, Chefren?
ReplyDelete+1 ^
DeleteYes of course you can :)
DeleteMy choice: (filled in the form)
ReplyDeleteURU-POR Aguilar
FRA-ARG Gassama
ESP-RUS Brych
KRO-DEN Pitana
my predictions are irmatov, because a lot of change for today match, and france - argentina i go with ramos. brych and kuipers for the europeans clash.
ReplyDeleteFrance - Argentina Ramo
ReplyDeleteUruguay - Portugal Irmatov
Spain - Russia Kuipers
Croatia - Denmark Rocchi
What do you think? Just ideas. About Irmatov, if the replacement as fourth official means that he has a game a few days later, in my opinion URU - POR is the first option, because he wouldn't handle again Argentina.
About Irmatov, what do you think? That blog (which name is something like Arbitro Internacional) gives him 8.7 in Spain - Marocco (!!!). Do you think FIFA liked his performance?
DeleteIsn't France v Argentina a bit too much for Ramos so early?? Might be way too risky... He was struggling in Brazil v Switzerland so I'm not sure that he should be put in such a massive game so early in his career!!
DeleteAlthough I agree that Irmatov does not deserve to get another game, I expect at least one more game for him. There is a simple reason for that: He got a QF and SF in 2010, in 2014 a QF despite rather weak performances. Hopefully they don't do it again, but I'm not convinced.
DeleteAnother thing I expect is that 'confederation neutrality' will be broken. For instance, I can hardly find referees for FRA-ARG, URU-POR who are not from UEFA and suit for the match. So, I would go for these names:
FRA-ARG: Gianluca Rocchi (ITA)
URU-POR: Felix Brych (GER)
ESP-RUS: César Ramos (MEX)
CRO-DEN: Mark Geiger (USA)
Geiger can't be at BRA-MEX.
ReplyDeleteI see Brych there.
Anseering Sohan on Ramos: his struggle should book him a flight back home. No need to tke risks with him in KO stage.
ReplyDeleteJoel Aguilar is there also!
ReplyDelete...and Jair Marrufo. Are there any chances for a R16 matches for him?
DeleteJust based on tournament performance, he should get a second match, I think.
I think it's tough to see him in KO stage!
Deleteand for the next games in round of 16. brazil - mexic with rocchi, and sweden - switzerland with lahoz. i don`t know what about marciniak after the controversial game in sweden - germany. and gassama i tried him in the last day of the round, who could be england or belgium with japan or columbia.
ReplyDeleteFrance - Argentina: Bjorn Kuipers
ReplyDeleteUruguay - Portugal: Gianluca Rocchi
Spain - Russia: Szymon Mariciniak
Croatia - Denmark: Andrés Cunha
France-Argentina Rocchi
ReplyDeleteUruguay-Portugal Ramos
Spain-Russia Kuipers
Croatia-Denmark Diedhiou
FRA ARG Geiger
ReplyDeleteURU POR Ramos
ESP RUS Gassama
CRO DEN Turpin
My predictions with many doubts.
Geiger will return today from Kazan... Once again in Kazan for 30 June?? That will be some workload for sure!
DeleteI think Turpin WC has ended yesterday, in my opinion he wasn't planned for more than two group stage games... but we will see. I would like to see referees from almost all confederations than many from UEFA...
DeleteI don't still see where Ramos Palazuelos struggled in BRA-SUI, if you rule that allowing the 1-1 was acceptable (as Mr Elleray did, member of UEFA RefCom with surely a quite loud voice in FIFA also).
ReplyDeleteOnly problem I found was a missing advantage, and someone on here saying "he whistled a softer foul than he allowed for the 1-1, he has no consistency" which, IMO, is pure bullshit with no relevance to top level refereeing.
I don't want to seem so aggressive, but I am just interested where you think Ramos struggled.
The overall impression in that game was that it lacked a bit of polishing... Poland v Colombia was much better though!
DeleteKuipers, Gassama, Rocchi & Geiger.
ReplyDeleteDon't remember the exact matches.
OT: if you want to try out :-) https://www.telegraph.co.uk/world-cup/world-cup-2018-var-video-referee/
ReplyDeleteInteresting!
DeleteFrance-Argentina - KUIPERS
ReplyDeleteUruguay-Portugal - BRYCH
Spain-Russia - RICCI
Croatia-Denmark - ROCCHI
Short synthesis/analysis after group stage appointments, as well my thoughts.
ReplyDeleteMAIN REFEREE:
2 Assignments: Ramos P., Geiger, Cunha, Pitana, Ricci, Roldan, Caceres, Turpin, Mateu L., Mazic, Kuipers, Skomina, Cakir, Marciniak, Rocchi, Shukrallah, Faghani, Irmatov, Sikazwe, Diedhou
1 Assignment: Conger, Karasev, Brych (!), Mohamed A.,Gassama, Grisha, Marrufo, Aguilar,
0 Assigment; Pitti, Montero, Hauata, Tessema, Abid Charef, Sato, Bascunan,
Among Top level referees only Brych takes just one match; Aguilar and Gassama also with one match but they are less quoted than Brych. I cannot also understand why Mohamed took an assignment while nothing for Sato, Bascunan and Hauata who are more experienced and who have shown higher performances.
All Confederations excepts Uefa have at least one referee not assigned as main referee
IV OFFICIALS:
4 Appointments: Pitti, Montero, Hauata, Tessema, Abid Charef, Bascunan, Sato (exactly who has not used as main referees)
3 Appointments: Mohamed A.
2 Appointments: Cunha, Karasev, Al Jassim
1 Appointment: Sikazwe, Rocchi, Cakir, Skomina, Mateu L., Mazic, Kuipers, Marrufo, Ricci, Roldan, Shukrallah
Al Jassim is the only dedicated VAR appointed as IV official too.
VAR 1:
8 matches: Irrati
7 matches: Zwayer, Makkelie
6 matches: Vigliano
5 matches: Orsato
3 matches: Geiger, Turpin, Soares Dias
2 matches: Valeri
1 match: Dankert, Ricci, Tiago Martins, Marciniak
Very impressive Irrati, better than elite referees Orsato, Makkelie and Zwayer. Among main referees only Ricci, Marciniak, Geiger and Turpin have been appointed as VAR; I was expecting someone more. Among dedicated VAR referees Al Jassim, Gil (with 11 appearance as VAR2) Vargas and Sampaio was never appointed as VAR1.
Record for GIL: 11 times VAR2

HELLO VIEWERS
ReplyDeleteGET OUT OF FINANCIAL MESS WITH THE HELP OF drbenjaminfinance@gmail.com
I have been in financial mess for the past months, I’m a single mum with kids to look after. My name is REBECCA MICHAELSON, and am from Ridley Park, Pennsylvania. A couple of weeks ago My friend visited me and along our discussion she told me about DR BENJAMIN OWEN FINANCE of drbenjaminfinance@gmail.com that he can help me out of my financial situation, I never believed cause I have spend so much money on different loan lenders who did nothing other than running away with my money. She advised, I gave it a try because she and some of her colleagues were rescued too by this Godsent lender with loans to revive their dying businesses and paying off bills. so I mailed him and explain all about my financial situation and therefore took me through the loan process which was very brief and easy. After that my loan application worth $278,000.00USD was granted, all i did was to follow the processing and be cooperative and today I am a proud business owner sharing the testimony of God-sent Lender. You can as well reach him through the Company Email drbenjaminfinance@gmail.com
THANK YOU VERY MUCH
