Given how Australia & USA goals were allowed to stand at this tournament the fact that a :CMR player was actually running away from the goal when she was flagged for half a boot offside. That's really harsh. And it seemed like every VAR decision went against them.

Well, when you have calibrated lines to detect offside by VAR, then half a boot is half a boot offside. And apart from this scene, in my opinion all other VAR checks were right, especially the second goal by ENG. Except the foul by CAM at 90+7', which would have also been a red card.

Meanwhile the most qualified of them all Bibiana Steinhaus has had only one game at this tournament so far. What are they saving her for esp. with Germany about to go deep in the tournament?

Absolutely agree. I have no clue why she doesn't get more matches. For all users who don't follow German Bndesliga (first league): Steinhaus referees in the Men's first league and is one of the best and most respected referees, male or female, in Germany.

The Cameroon offside was okay but what I meant was that the US & AUS goals should have been ruled out. Both Kerr & Lloyd were clearly moving towards the ball while being offside and affected the defenders hence the entire play. Those were two horrible calls IMO which underlines how poor the refereeing is at this tournament IMO. At least they were both consistently horrible.

France will be hard-pressed to topple the Americans tbh, the full-backs look vunerable as heck and of course the keeper is very howler-prone. Nobody has shown me anything so far to stop USA other than park the bus Sweden-Olympics style and hope for a 0-0 penalty kicks miracle.

Although soccer is one of the sports I least enjoy it was very enjoyable to watch these girls, the efforts of each one that even with their limitations achieved a result beyond what was expected. :hatoff::hatoff: :wub:

 

About the awful coach, maybe the worst in history? I do not know much about soccer, but as little as I know it shows me that he is horrible. :coffee:

    • Besides, I think Eitrem will be better than Ghiotto. You can see it after 1500 meters. He is younger. The whole Norwegian team is also in great shape.
    • Looking at last season's 1st World Cup, it's worse for now and it should be the other way around. Bosa out of shape, Trentini weak. Both will drop to a lower group. It's similar to skeleton, i.e. regression instead of progress. I hope this doesn't mean Ghiotto is also in weaker form, because it could end up with 0 podiums this weekend.
    • In general, our picture for a little over 1 year until the home games looks like this:     - the women's sector is still based on one Lollo, who is 3 years older than 2022, - the women's and men's sprint sector is based on one Bosa and possibly the young Pergher (0% possobility for medal in 2026), - Ghiotto has made a lot of progress and that is a big plus. He could result to give our even 3 medals, including 1/2 gold. Our team's performance also depends to a large extent on Ghiotto's form, - the rest of the men's team is basically unchanged. There is Giovannoni in the mass start, there is Malfatti in the longer distances, but they are not competitors on the podium of a major event.   I will repeat myself: if Ghiotto continues to make such progress, we will probably win 3 medals, 2 of which gold and it will be a success. If something doesn`t work out, an injury, illness, etc. (we know from Vitozzi that this can happen to anyone), then it could be very bad. By the way, this also applies to other sports: the above-mentioned Vitozzi in biathlon, Goggia in downhill, Brignone in giant slalom, etc.
    • With the World Cup season in most of the winter sports about to begin and qualification in some sports already underway, I think it's about time for this thread.    Template    ...

    • Today is a day without Italians in the leads positions. I`m worried that they are not trying to revive this our sprint. There is only one Bosa and he is old. Pergher is young but she is also only one. It is a pity. After the Olympics they will probably 100% give up on the entire sprint. Our medal bag in Cortina will depend 90% on Ghiotto, just like it did on Fabris in Turin 2006. If Ghiotto will be in goodshape, he can even win 2 individual golds + a team medal. If not, it will be a flop. Apart from him, only Lollobrigida can compete in the mass start and possibly Giovannini in the men's mass start.
    • Yup, actually they have just some juniors pairs in the dance event
