From the games I watched so far, it was the first one to start on time
ReplyDeleteClear YC,but surprised given the fact that leniency is best policy.
ReplyDelete12' YC to Portugal, Cristiano Ronaldo protests against referee.
ReplyDeleteCorrect decision, it was a reckless challenge.

DeleteYC given to Portugal player. For me it's in the "orange" category.
ReplyDeleteVery good decision for YC!
ReplyDeleteFinally correct early yc
ReplyDeleteOh for god sake ! Thanks you to Al-Jassim to assume immediatly a YC which is MANDATORY but very rare in this World cup ! Well done !
ReplyDeleteWrong yellow card for Mbemba, foul should have gone the other way. Why no VAR review?
ReplyDeleteOnly for incorrect 2YC's
DeleteDisagree. Good YC for for excessive arm use.
DeleteYC issued to DR Congo player either for reckless use of the arm or pull of the jersey. I'm not too sure.
ReplyDeleteAnd now again YC that was mandatory.
ReplyDeleteYesterday similar foul happened in Marciniak 's match and no card was shown.
Soft yc now
ReplyDeleteSecond YC of the game, reckless challenge, in this case I think it was rather a mistake by referee, it was a careless action with arm for me, nothing more.
ReplyDeleteBTW it's a surprise that this approach, at least so far, comes from the most unexpected referee, it's definitely strange if you ask me.

DeleteClueless 2nd yellow. Neto clearly fouled the defender first
