Germany could have had about 6 goals. They had a decent spell at the back end of the first half, thats about it.
Was much more impressed with them against England where they pretty much dominated from about minute 15 - maybe they're just tired.
Exactly.
Our officious little pricks could make a game of noughts and crosses complicated.
It was a block. My point is, how often does that get given. You will see loads more blocks in this tournament that won't get given. I watched the pundits after our game against Arse talk about "how good/clever the blocking was".
Either way, Denmark's wasn't subjective, like a block, it was offside, pure and simple. And Denmark haven't been hard done by by the big calls. The only one I'd question is the block which ruled out Germany's first goal.
I'm not a big fan of the German national team (I am not a fan of the German national team at all), but I have to say that I think they deserved to win today.
Of course, it was also lucky that the Danes' 3 or 4 chances in the first half didn't go in - but overall the German team was better.

The block wasn't subjective. It was ILLEGAL. The fact that these sometimes don't get called is incompetence not subjectivity. What Kimmich did is illegal, has ALWAYS been illegal - just because incompetent refs sometimes don't call it is neither here nor there.
Nobody understands handball anymore making it the ultimate "subjective" call - personally I don't think that should ever be called handball but meh...
As for the offside - I don't know. I can't remember seeing a replay of it but yes, offsides are generally offside.
But you are being ridiculous about the Kimmich block. It's 100% a foul and should ALWAYS be called by the ref and if not by VAR
Well explained bird ref.
I could freak out about VAR!
A big toe offside!
As a former street footballer, I don't understand the rules of handball - too varied, too complicated.
I'm of the opinion that a hand is a hand! Be that as it may - nobody listens to me anyway

What a load of fucking waffle
She's a ref... Who is better qualified to explain the rules?
Mate the majority do not have a fucking clue. They just don't get it. Can read rules but don't understand the game. Honestly I've seen some clips on Facebook of football being played in America and the amount of parents on the video and Americans in the comments sections calling red cards on beautifully well timed challenges is staggering. Ever since the fifa corruption and usa owners it's so clear they've got too involved in football and fucked it up.
