GTA_stu Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 (edited) Come on, not every bad decision by a ref is made because of some hidden agenda or corruption. The decisions against Bosnia and Iran yesterday were just genuine mistakes or the ref genuinely thought the decision he was making was correct. I think some form of video evidence or review system needs to be brought in to games, because the referee can't get everything right and especially at this level this can have dramatic consequences. Goal line technology is a good start but we need to add to it. Edited June 22, 2014 by stu ddyoung, Vercetti27 and Coin 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddyoung Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 Belgium and Russia look pretty evenly matched. They keep the attacking flow going and both goalkeepers have been kept quite busy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fireman Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 Both teams are playing pretty awful. Russia was god awful against Korea and they're still bad now. Belgium failed to impress in their game against Algeria and now continue to fail to impress (lol best team world cup). Easiest group by far and Belgium seems to be struggling.

Eutyphro Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 The first half Belgium was the only attacking team, but they lacked effectiveness. Russia did get some chances in the counter and a major goal chance as a header but they failed to make it. I'm disappointed by Russia this world cup, but they are slightly better the second half against Belgium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GTA_stu Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 Belgium have good players but they don't play well as a team, or at least they haven't been. Lukaku looks terrible for them. Pretty boring game really, although it sparked up a bit in the final 5 minutes or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eutyphro Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 Belgium played alright first half but it looks like they gave up. oops... They started trying again, true, and then they scored. I like that, because Russia has been absolutely sh*t and they don't deserve it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xNCx Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 If someone tells me that Belgium is a dark horse of this WC... Then obviously he doesn't know the meaning of it.

uJhatafart00 Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 Damn, i predicted they were going to win easily (I said 0-2) but 3 goals in 40 mins are just impressive! Great team! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shoumaker Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 (edited) It's annoying how the games are the same KO time from tomorrow onwards. It has to be done so the teams in the groups don't strategize based on the performance of the others since it's the final one. Who would have thought the Algerians would play this well, they're on the driving seat now to progress. Great match so far, want to see even more goals.

Goal line technology is a good start but we need to add to it. Not every decision, just the ones which blatantly help teams FIFA wants to pass, like Argentina (and, as I've been told today, Belgium — yesterday Nigeria...). Well done Algeria. That's how you do it. 3 goals and SK+ref can't do sh*t. Bye bye Korea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
