That one counts, Sabiri!
That Belgium ‘keeper seems dodgy, that’s the second free kick which has just sailed past him. He got away with the first one - it was offside but that’s not why it went in.
They can’t even be consistent about rulings within the game, if Saiss is impeding Courtois before, how is he not here?
Either both goals are legitimate and Morocco should be 2-0 up, or neither of them are and it should be 0-0
Utterly ridiculous.
Don’t get me wrong not trying to defend Belgium, they’ve been truly terrible in this tournament and deserved to lose to Canada let alone today
But just decide what the rules are and stick to them
Isn’t the difference he was offside the first time but not the second?
So I guess the argument is that he was a distraction to the ‘keeper when in an offside position?
Obviously bollocks, it would have gone in anyway, but I guess thems the rules.
How is Martinez still their coach?
2-0!!
0-2!!
Well that was fun.
I don’t think this has been a high quality World Cup so far. Only a couple of sides have looked much good.
That’s it though, it’s complete bollocks either Saiss is involved in play or he isn’t. It just relegates it to being completely arbitrary and not a consideration as to whether his positioning had an impact on the goalkeeper and if so whether that’s fair or not. Now I honestly don’t mind if it’s yes or no but they should pick one.Quote:

Yep agree, this is why I favour BrazilQuote:

Belgium’s best players like De Bruyne have never really been what you’d call athletic (relative of course) and in their thirties which Hazard, De Bruyne, Witsel are….it really shows. Canada and Morocco had more energy than them, and Croatia are a bit more solid at the back (Vertonghen and Alderweireld are decent or were but they always had an error in them)
