  1. Why on earth did the camera crew follow the 4th official instead of Katie Garcia?

  2. Also, Mexican flag colour stripes following on from Tori Penso.

  4. Second half kick off delayed because Tunisia only had 10 players on the field, could that be a YC for DTR?

    1. Can it count because play technically has not started yet?

    2. Is first half delaying the start, but second restart ;-) I think safest to completely ignore, no one expects or wants anything like that, and let the competition organizer fine for delayed kick off should they wish

    3. Restart play and call in the player when appropriate. You do not need to wait for them to be 11 because they aren’t ready.

    4. @VG that’s what I’d do too but sensible - “what football expects” - would be to wait as Garcia did

  6. No comments here so far? Does it mean she was good and maybe another WC appearance possible?
