Fucking hell, this is depressing to see. Before yesterday, all the refs were ‘against’ Germany and even the disallowed goal at the start was ‘against’ Germany. The offside was genuinely so unlucky for Denmark, even as an England fan I was annoyed and I’d be pissed if that was my team, but I guess they wanted to show off this new var animation and it’s accuracy. The offside can genuinely be seen as dodgy but the same can be said about the goal in the third minute. Overall, quite a few people share the opinion that the offside can be seen as okay though, like Keane, so idk.
Moving onto the handball, his arm was above his waist and affected the attack, messing up the cross, all this whining about ‘unintentional’ is stupid. I’m pretty sure every semi pro defender out there knows that they’re supposed to keep hands low or put their hands behind their back in that situation and whilst I completely agree that unintentional handballs are punished too harshly but why are people acting like this is the first time they’ve seen a penalty given for a feather’s touch when it literally happens all the time.
Honestly, yesterday was anybody’s game and both teams played brilliant, hell I’d be over the moon if England play half as well as fucking Denmark, but the whining from all the fans from different countries saying the tournament is biased for Germany is completely unjustified, especially when players like Musiala and Gundogan are out there cracked out of their minds like every game.
