jonovision Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 The Shaffelburg shot was probably in, but none of the angles provided on TV showed it to be in. The Mavinga tackle was laughable, and the penalty run-up was illegal. If it wasn't then the run-up rule is pointless. narduch and Ivan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bison44 Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 Oh boy. Wheels is showing where his loyalties lie here. Ollie makes more sense in my opinion. The team fought hard after going down and should not hang their heads. Except for Mavinga, how many penalties has he given up now? When does he get into the "I'll never trust him ever" Henry type territory. I tried putting a voo doo hex on a few guys....I wont name names, but I am one for three after one try. jonovision and Ivan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How long does conditioning take? Seemed he was loaned about a month ago to TFC 2 No idea if it's international spots, but if it isn't, he had posted on social media on Monday that he had Covid and just recovered. That explains some of the absence (at least from TFC2) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gian-Luca Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 (edited) Tried to take a screenshot of the highlights but it appears to big to post, it looks like one of those photos where they remove the ball from the picture & ask you to guess where it is. Only its not that but a screen shot from the TFC highlights video where you can't see the ball because it's behind the keeper but you can clearly see the goal line and the ball isn't on it. Shaff got the shaft here. Good for Perez for finally showing some personality and accusing the VAR official of bias - he had a laptop with I think the same screenshot on his desk for the post match interview and said it is difficult to believe that this wasn't done on purpose, calling out Canadian VAR official Geoff Gamble (he also complained about the 3 Miami players who encroached on the PK and weren't called).

jonovision Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 I've seen TFC fans posting screenshots all over twitter and none of them show the ball to be clearly over. I don't think there's anyone to blame there, really, other than whoever decided to have cameras set up on the end line from one side only. The penalty (the run-up and the encroachment, not the call itself) was a travesty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jedi Ram Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 Cannot believe that VAR cannot / could not call the ref to review either of these calls ... If I see it in real-time then surely VAR team could too... gator 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that’s a blow up of what I was trying to post earlier although I do now see that even the shadow of the ball has crossed the line, making it even more conclusive. It is perhaps just as well that such a farce occurred at this part of the season if it was going to happen rather than in a game that meant something. On the other hand, Impact fans might feel aggrieved by this photo given their playoff push. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the rule of thumb is normally to go against the first team to encroach - Higuain seems to have been the first with both feet firmly planted well inside the box. nfitz and dyslexic nam 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanadaFan123 Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 Unbelievable that the Shaffelburg "goal" wasn't reviewed. If it's inconclusive after review that's one thing but how can you not even review it? Also why is there no goal line technology and why would cameras not be on both sides and/or overhead? narduch and dyslexic nam 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not quite. Encroachment by both teams results in a retaken penalty, regardless of who encroached first and whether a goal was scored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was always one of my favourite players even before TFC, always working his ass off. Had a good nose for the net in his prime. I hope Morrow continues to have as great a career off the field as he did on it.
