The Jokers Wild: World Cup Referees

1. RIDICULOUS

   the standard of reffing is terrible in this world cup not just the US game

2. The main Problem here is the FIFA. Since around 20 Years they won`t use Review Assistant to clear some Scenes like Offside and so on.

   On the other Hand, at a WC the best Refs should work and not Refs from all over the World that arent at the Level that around 500 European Refs have. Sad but true.

3. You should’ve drawn Uncle Sam showing the ref another finger instead, but this is a family website.

   Still….Go USA!

4. GMFO-

   referee problems are a world wide plague- the call was made and no one knows what the call was about. Some said it was an offisides penalty- but replays show that was not the case. what ever- the US is still in contention for the cup- let the games begin-

   strive for excellence,nothing but your best.

5. The World Cup. The gifts that keep on giving.

   Lets see. England gave the USA a gift of a goal off the hands of their goalie. England and Slovania got a gift from the referee by disallowing the goal. Then England returned the gift in a sense by playing to a 0-0 tie.

   Where will the next gift come from? Who will benefit? This is starting to look less like elite soccer and more like a “Treasure Hunt”

6. I know South Africa worked really hard to reduce crime in anticipation of all the visitors this summer. They just forgot to deal with the crimes INSIDE the stadium.

7. FIFA is one of the most corrupt agencies in sports. Anyone remember the ref jobbing Ireland against France last summer in qualifying?
