  3. Poor penalty call by the MAN himself again protected by VAR, there was very minimum or less contact for PK and where's the high bar for fouls

    1. This is considered a careless challenge, not a weak one; in other words, it is a correct penalty kick with no yellow card. Well done, Szymon Marciniak.

  4. Good no call by AR2 on 1-1 goal, and potential YC for covering the head with the shirt but understand Marciniak’s decision to ignore it for game management

  12. An excellent first half from Marciniak; he is starting to return to his high level.
    I hardly felt his presence on the pitch, which reflects strong control over the players and the match overall.

  17. Iran robbed. They drew the lines with the defender closest to him but not the one further away who's playing him onside?

    2. Line was drawn on the right player since goalkeeper was ahead of two other defenders
