Wrong call there. If the ref had seen this on video he wouldnt have given a penalty I think.

Referee call that will likely decide the Northern Ireland v Switzerland tie

That's one of these wher whatever the ref does, one side will blame him. Apparently NI had 0 shots on goal, in a home game, so after seeing this game, it might be an (un)lucky outcome, but not an undeserved one I think.
(Disclaimer: Switzerland is usually my second team)

Ugh I'm not sure on this one, I have a huge problem with a handball call if the ball would have hit the chest/head/any part of the player if the hand was in any other position. Add to that side angle where you can't really get arm out of the way and short distance.
I guess the referee doesn't have the benefit of replay but I don't like this call at all.

I don't think any England game for a long time will be sold out, we are not playing good football at all.

Take that, open goal, bad angle Trippier idiot SHOOTS instead of squaring it to lofty for 1-0 easy goal

My completely uniformed opinion is that Peru should beat New Zealand comfortably.

Yeah, you shouldn’t need our energy to beat NZ, if you do you have no business at the WC.

LOL in denmark vs ireland, there a total of 15 starting players on a yellow card (7 danish, 8 irish). If emotions get high this game, who does have the better backups for the return match?

edit: Also surprised to see that nigeria is southernmost african team to qualify.

Attacking fans has always been a more serious offense, I dont see why this is surprising. He wasnt making the national team regardless. Especially a pre meditated kick to the head. I dont remember anyone ever going to jail for a bite. Kicks in the head though, thats happened.

Might mean he just retires though.

One of the most ridiculous football stories I have ever heard.
After Blackpool's owners were found guilty in court of being general bastards, the FA removed a referee name Ben Toner from their match.

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2017/11/10/referee-named-ben-toner-replaced-blackpool-game-following-high/

Referee Ben Toner has been replaced for Blackpool's League Two match with Portsmouth just days after a high court decreed that the Seasiders' owners, the Oystons, had operated an “illegitimate stripping” of the Lancashire club.

The EFL say they have brought in Premier League referee Jon Moss to officiate the match due to the “increased attention” surrounding the fixture - but the timing of the decision has been met with amusement online.

In a ruling handed down by Justice Marcus Smith on Monday, Owen Oyston and his son Karl were ordered £31m to buy out the minority shareholder Valeri Belokon because of “fundamental breaches” of their duties as directors.

Given Toner's name, the decision to appoint the Lancashire-born referee was the subject of some amusement on social media.

Don’t tune in to Greece - Croatia. The Greek have reduced the game to physical duels, wrong passes and whining to the ref. Croatia are better technically and are better organized, but they just want the game to be over and dedicate 1 player to pressing. Snoozefest, as to be expected after the 4-1.

So, in few hours it will be decided whether Italy joins the Almost-there Cup. Italy, Netherlands, Chile... That would be a tough competition.

This is a crucial match for germanys chances to defend the world cup. There's only like ten teams in the world against which I could see us lose at the world cup even if thiings go bad, and italy would always very high up the list.
