3rd place.What was the Italy/Belgium game for?
What was the Italy/Belgium game for?
The Italians.They played already. I can't believe I already can't remember who won in that
Yes. Right. It is coming to me too with a few Batsuayi fuck ups I rememberThe Italians.
The studio on the feed I am watching are more or less in agreement that the goal was offside.Does nobody else think the Mbappe goal was offside? They never showed the angle with the computerized lines like Clattenburg claimed would show he was onside…

Is that how it works now? Deflections cancel any offside call?Defender touched the ball, making it onside.
It wasnt a deflection as such. Their player 'deliberately' tried to touch the ball, so its considered onside. If he hadnt tried to touch it but the ball just bounces of him, then its not 'deliberate' , then its offside.Is that how it works now? Deflections cancel any offside call?
What you got to say about Deschamps now BC? 2 big trophies my man. He's dragging his plucky side to the top of world football on a wing and prayer. Not too many managers will be able to point to a record like his. And that's not even considering he might have another WC in him. The world needs more water carriers is the take home lesson.Defender touched the ball, making it onside.
The defender 'played the ball' it didn't just deflect off him. It's similar to our controversial goal against liverpool a few years back.Is that how it works now? Deflections cancel any offside call?
Right but he only had to deliberately go for it because of the player - in an offside position - making the run. In my opinion if the attacking team plays a ball intended for a player in an offside position and it deflects (deliberate or not), then it’s still offside.It wasnt a deflection as such.

Funky rules.
