PAW Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 Ronaldo missing his PK relieved a ton of pressure for Messi. Nigeria's playing style is also perfect for him. I thought this game was going to be a rout due to those two things and it looks like it will end up that way if the game keeps going how it has been.

The Gnat Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 I missed, did the swap the goalie out? FIFA. if not, needs to adopt better concussion protocols, because they didn't have time to really check. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would require some mental fortitude. Not if you go in with the mindset that you can't be any worse than Willy lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Gnat Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 I wonder if that yellow will go to AVR. I could see that easily being a red. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could definitely be wrong though. Completely agree about concussions not be treated properly though. The way the Amarbat concussion from Morocco was handled was disgusting.

Heimdallr Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 Keepers should just be required to wear a soft helmet (ie: Cech). They are never going to head the ball, they are at risk for feet/knees to the head, as we just saw, and it isn't feasible to bring them off the field for concussion checks.

tom cody Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 Lots to be decided today in Group D. All we know is Croatia is through. Who will join them is up in the air. I have Argentina getting the win today (They're up 1 nil) and joining them in the knockout stage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was the first game of the group against Iran. I think he took a kick to the head and then the Moroccan doctors were literally just slapping his face and he played the rest of the match and then played the next game against Portugal.

Heimdallr Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 The seems like a high kick foul to me. I'd understand a yellow and PK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if it's not a yellow, he was holding the Nigerian player, that is one that I would say was missed and that Argentina got lucky with that.
