2-4 Germany now after VAR intervenes.
Japan and Spain through! Wow.
Germany.
Does that Japan fan know they've gone through?
Fuck this Tournament, big load of shit much like the European teams playing in it
Looking forward to a Brazil procession where they win because they don’t have to play anyone big…
And Fuck FIFA for giving a goal when the ball had gone out of play
Croatia v Japan
Morocco v Spain
Germany.
Incredible effort from Japan. Don’t think anyone would have bet on them beating Germany and Spain to progress.

But more pissed off that Brazil have piss easy journey to the semi finals. If Spain had killed off the game like they should have done, a ball being completely out apart from a camera trick showing part of it over hanging would have been academic
Same bullshit four years ago one half of the draw was a wash out and that’s basically how average dross like Croatia make the final
Clearly in
It's not a camera trick
If anything the camera trick is the other angle where you see grass between the ball and the line. That's not how that rule works. It's not the part of the ball that contacts the ground that has to be over the line, it's the whole of the ball which has to be over the whole of the line. In the still above it is admittedly difficult to determine that but it is at least from the right angle. With all the goal line technology and chips now being in the ball, there should be no way they can get these things wrong. Pretty much everything else in football is subjective, but with this...it either did or it didn't go all the way over the line.
EDIT: For the lolz, I put the above into my trusty Paint.NET and drew a circle around the ball. You can pretty clearly see if you do that it's not completely over the line. I am presupposing that the still is the furthest to the right (as we look in that image) the ball went.
EDIT2:
