    Really insane spin would allow for it, but I doubt he was thinking that hard.

    Why are they keeping the flag down when he was off by three yards?

    Why, with the evident poor footing on this field, are the refs wearing flats?

    Ricci's ARs are having a bad couple of minutes.

    So we ignore cautions all tournament but if some one takes their shirt off after scoring, we’re going to give him one.
    Asinine.

    I think our referee is also out of gas. He was way behind on the Russian counter right before go ahead goal.

    He knew he was getting carded before he took the shirt off. And didn’t care as he wasn’t sitting on one already. That is one line that has been clearly drawn.

    Nope, they just realize he qualifies as “fake news”.

    Which is fine, I just wish that same line hadn't been used to obliterate entire sections of Law 12
