Gian-Luca Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 That’s a very crowded TSN panel. Although one could perhaps play a drinking game for each time De Guzman says “I think it’s important” while he is on the panel. 😉 narduch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Free kick Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 The pronunciation of the stadium names is going to be a learning experience. I just noticed the way they pronounce Al Bayt stadium was not the same as what I though it was Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always have a soft spot for them having lived there for a year after uni. I don't see them escaping this group, however. narduch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestHamCanadianinOxford Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 In the build-up, they said Qatar had only lost once in this year, now that includes a lot of non-FIFA friendlies but nice to be the one, maybe. ( I think they lost to Croatia u-23 side.) Tough one to pick for me. The Qatari players deserve something but love Enner Valencia, the Ecuador captain.

Craig11rm Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 That was a tight offside call…. Wonder why they didn’t show the line that they usually animate in to the replay? Anyone else feel like something fishy might happen with the officiating of the host country’s games? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gian-Luca Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 It can only have been ruled out for a foul but I didn’t see one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lurker Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 (edited) 5 minutes ago, Gian-Luca said: How was that ruled offside? The keeper was up and I think that resulted in only one Qatar player ahead of the Striker... I'd like to see the VAR line though. Edit: Here's the offside rule. Key Part: A player is in an "offside position" if they are in the opposing team's half of the field and also "nearer to the opponents' goal line than both the ball and the second-last opponent."

Cheeta Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 What did they say in the pre-match? It's been 8-9 matches since Ecuador scored from open play? Think that run will be coming to an end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prairiecanuck Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 That wasn't offside. I don't know how they can justify what has just happened. red card 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can not be beyond everyone save the last man - not neccesarily the keeper. Edited November 20, 2022 by WestHamCanadianinOxford Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lurker Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 (edited) Based on that line they just showed I was wrong (at least I think...) Edit: I did get it right based on this image. I'll let it go now... I've always found that part of the offside rule fascinating. Edited November 20, 2022 by Lurker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
