Rodger Sherman @rodger.bsky.social · 01/07/2026Was it a foul on Senegal: I think so Am I still somehow mad they called it a penalty in the 120th minute: also yes somehow 2141625
Joel @jandcochran.bsky.social · 01/07/2026The great non-Vatican 2-related schism of our time is sports fans who think fouls should count at the end of game or not (basketball, pass interference, , penalties for goal kicks, dee ford things of that nature) 010
Nate Keller @nkeller.bsky.social · 01/07/2026Considering what Belgium has gotten away with it feels even more egregious 020
finallysock.bsky.social @finallysock.bsky.social · 01/07/2026ball was delivered into the attacker's feet, defender was kicking at where the ball was going. did not stop him from doing anything useful with the ball. no foul. 370
Richard Stromberg @rstromberg.bsky.social · 02/07/2026That was a foul but you absolutely cannot call that foul, especially a pen 100
Jeremy S @dcpswyrm1.bsky.social · 01/07/2026Probably a foul there, but VAR intervening there but not for a much more obvious push on the 2nd Belgium goal is a really bad look. 031
absinthe makes the heart grow fonder @absintheofcolor.bsky.social · 01/07/2026to me looked like he was going for the ball but his foot got stuck in the grass 010
[guitar solo] @robotologyresistor.bsky.social · 02/07/2026not a foul, 50/50 ball, defender never even looks at the belgian guy, just trying to clear it and dude sneaks his foot in just in time to barely get kicked instead of the ball. Ball is still nowhere near playable by the belgian guy. 100% wrong decision at any point in the match 040
Tie @finchty.bsky.social · 01/07/2026Why I’ll never be a referee or let me kids referee (if I had kids). Was it the right call? Yes. Was it the right call for soccer? Hell no. 000
Andy @sportsfanandy.bsky.social · 01/07/2026I'm mad too. There are little fouls all over the pitch that are worse than that, that don't get called. In fact, this whole World Cup has featured refs "letting them play" and ignoring 50/50 foul calls. This was an absolute joke of a call to make in that situation. 020
Sam Handwhich @mjrtom05.bsky.social · 01/07/2026And yet somehow the turkey tap to the balls of the Senegalese player afterwards in the scrum is just totally okay 100
CB @pcb03.bsky.social · 01/07/2026The goal where the keeper went to punch it and missed will haunt them 080
arkkamui.bsky.social @arkkamui.bsky.social · 01/07/2026Senegal completly choked that Game away. Belgium Players know they got away with murder here. 000
Kyle Baker @kylembaker19.bsky.social · 01/07/2026Gonna also state the obvious and say “don’t allow two goals in the final 5 minutes of regulation” 0250
Ghost of Lepa Radić @ghostofdonknotts.bsky.social · 02/07/2026A foul at 3' should be treated equally as one at 119'. It sucks for Senegal, and I wanted them to win, but it was a foul, it was in the box, so... 090
Michael Salerno @mikenjd.bsky.social · 02/07/2026Thing is, before VAR, this would have NEVER been called even though, technically, it was the correct call. 000
ajhlawyer.bsky.social @ajhlawyer.bsky.social · 02/07/2026There are certain things that may be fouls but shouldn’t be penalties. This fits in that category at best. Reality defender plays the ball 1st, Tielemans is there 2nd and never attempts to play the ball. 000
