I bet he would have scored that header with proper shaved head

 

[Jotamide]

Vidal played a great game. Love that guy.

 

[con-ca-te-nate]

Lol sliding all over the place

 

[MisterMrMister]

Goddamn slippery turf getting on my nerves.

 

[brokenbeans]

SHE FELL OVER!!!

 

[Syntsui]

Bye Vidal lol. Such a shitty player.

 

[Envelope]

oh god messi's hair

 

[Grover Cleveland]

Messi deserved to trip for how awful his haircut and ink are

 

[Toxi]

Everyone's slipping.

 

[Mackmannen]

Juve need to get shit together only 10+extra left now

 

[El Topo]

Godmode Messi is best Messi.

 

[freshVeggie]

And if the ball didn't change the course drastically.

Well, if he held his arm close to his body and ball hit with force his arm and gets redirected - even drastically - and becomes a goal then it legally counts as a fair goal.

Vidal played a great game. Love that guy.

He did? He was on the edge of yellow-red.

 

[bjaelke]

Why would you send out Xavi for Iniesta? :/

Xavi's last appearance. Giving the fans a chance to say goodbye.

 

[Chris R]

Xavi's last appearance. Giving the fans a chance to say goodbye.

Which mls team did he sign with?

 

[Syntsui]

Which mls team did he sign with?

Qatar.

 

[brokenbeans]

Which mls team did he sign with?

Off to Qatar I thought?

 

[CoolOff]

He did? He was on the edge of yellow-red.

How does that discount a great performance?

 

[Rainy]

Lmfao Pique

 

[Akai__]

Well, if he held his arm close to his body and ball hit with force his arm and gets redirected - even drastically - and becomes a goal then it legally counts as a fair goal.

It really depends. I've seen both cases.

Xavi's last appearance. Giving the fans a chance to say goodbye.

No, I meant for Iniesta. Somebody else should have gone, because his passes were freakig perfect.

 

[brokenbeans]

How does that discount a great performance?

He had a poor first half but better second, still wasn't that great though really.

 

[Alex_Mexico]

C'mon Juve. My beers are too good. I want Extra Time!!!

 

[gai_shain]

you don't get to score with a handball, period

LAW 12 – FOULS AND MISCONDUCT Page 119 Fifa Laws of the game 13/14

Handling the ball
Handling the ball involves a deliberate act of a player making contact with
the ball with his hand or arm. The referee must take the following into
consideration:
• the movement of the hand towards the ball (not the ball towards the hand)
• the distance between the opponent and the ball (unexpected ball)
• the position of the hand does not necessarily mean that there is an
infringement
• touching the ball with an object held in the hand (clothing, shinguard, etc.)
counts as an infringement
• hitting the ball with a thrown object (boot, shinguard, etc.) counts as an
infringement
Disciplinary sanctions
There are circumstances when a caution for unsporting behaviour is required
when a player deliberately handles the ball, e.g. when a player:
•
deliberately handles the ball to prevent an opponent gaining possession
• attempts to score a goal by deliberately handling the ball

the motion he did was not deliberate it was a normal motion of someone going for a header in that position

 

[Rainy]

Alves went down a bit easily there but meh

 

[Eyeh4wk]

Pogba is so mad

 

[Jotamide]

He did? He was on the edge of yellow-red.

He's temperamental but he has "garra" as we call it in spanish, I respect that.

 

[CoolOff]

He had a poor first half but better second, still wasn't that great though really.

I'd say the opposite. He fell out of the game for the second half.

 

[dakun]

Should've sent off pogba there. Clear yellow

 

[Alex_Mexico]

Goddammit Pogba, stop fouling!!

 

[Toxi]

Shouldn't be a foul on Pogba lol

That was a clear foul.

 

[freshVeggie]

It really depends. I've seen both cases.

Totally. It is usually a very finicky deal and greatly depends on referee.
Both calls can be accepted/fighted.

In this case it was the right call.

 

[Mackmannen]

Pogba did a good game so far except for the first goal, really think hes gonna be great after this.

 

[Akai__]

How does that discount a great performance?

Who said it was? I just added that afterwards.

I haven't seen any great performance by him.

 

[dhlt25]

suarez looks like he wants to bite something lol

 

[Syntsui]

Morata is out. Game over.

 

[chadskin]

That coach had an iPad but no app open. Odd.

 

[con-ca-te-nate]

Fuck off Suarez!

 

[Envelope]

lol suarez

 

[pulsemyne]

ha ha hurt himself diving.

 

[Kurt Angle]

here comes the barca DNA

rolling on the ground until the end of the game

 

[Rainy]

That looks like it hurt

 

[Toxi]

LOL Fox commentator doesn't even know Suarez is banned from Copa America.

 

[Alex_Mexico]

It's one of those times where I don't know if Suarez is faking or for real. If he didn't overact every time Id believe him.

 

[StriKeVillain]

That was kind of gross looking...

 

[Syntsui]

ha ha hurt himself diving.

Are you fucking blind?

 

[freshVeggie]

the motion he did was not deliberate it was a normal motion of someone going for a header in that position

Neymar's arms were unnaturally at a height in which coincidentally he decided to receive the ball with his head.

 

[Blablurn]

great final. wouldnt mind if it goes into extra time.

 

[Envelope]

ahahahahaha what was that juve

 

[El Topo]

He can walk again. Slowly. Very slowly. It's a miracle!
