    Just seems normal that the referee gets his coin brought before the match...

      Why VAR Guzman didn’t correct wrong GK decision here ? Sorry but that’s definitively a mess concerning VAR use !

      74 matches in and you're asking why VAR didn't turn a GK into a CK?

      Because VAR is only allowed to change a corner into a goal kick

      It was a correctly awarded goal kick

      Was ironic…but not clear i guess lol. Just to say VAR use is completely disbalanced by the last procedure evolution.

    Jayed not convincing again, taking a while to spot head injury. Paraguay might make this tough for him…

      I actually liked this. The player could easily rolled off pitch to avoid the 1 minute

      If Paraguay can keep this tied into the 2nd half it will get challenging.

      I was a bit surprised PAR#4 had to wait a minute before being allowed to enter again. I was under the impression that the ‘1-minute off’ ruling does not apply if it concerns a head injury (as we’ ve seen earlier in the tournament).

      That depends on the severity of the injury. Only a serious injury allowed to stay on the field. Not just whether it's a head injury

    Very good no foul call at 29’ with convincing body language, well done!

    Foul awarded ‘22 just before hydration was way soft.

    Could be a very difficult second half

      Dealing with paraguayan gamesmanship alone will be nearly impossible.

    Easy 1st half for Jayed.
