His explanation makes me believe it less that it was something innocent. It's a very strange excuse to give.
Video assistant referee Shaun Evans has denied "intentionally" making a hand gesture "to communicate a message, affiliation, game or belief of any kind". He has been cleared by a Fifa investigation and will continue to officiate at the World Cup. bbc.co.uk/sport/football/art…

The fact that your government has made it illegal for me to answer yes is a damning testament to your flagrant disregard for civil liberties. This may be targeted at those taking action against the genocide, but it sets a very dangerous precedent that puts everyone at risk.

Do you support the Palestine Action group?

2nd incorrect corner overturned of the tournament. The ironic part is that Spain possibly cost themselves a corner as their substitution delayed the restart which gave VAR more time to check the corner #ESPCPV

It is very strange how the media are so obsessed with the referee for the match Clement Turpin is a brilliant referee but it feels like the media are already trying to create controversy or anti-referee narrative
"Which Champions League final was it?" Jordan Henderson's funny reaction to learning who will referee England's World Cup opener👀🤣

Have they really got "snicko" at the World Cup? Yep! And it was at Euro 2024, too. Here's how the chip the in ball gave Sweden's Mattias Svanberg a goal against Tunisia. READ: bbc.co.uk/sport/football/art…

It looks like FIFA are fine with the yellow card being shown after a review, their only issue was the restart which should have been a drop ball not free kick to USA
Fifa was happy with VAR's intervention to retrospectively punish Miguel Almiron for diving against USA on Friday, and more divers will be punished through the tournament... but only if the tackler is booked. Story: independent.co.uk/sport/foot…

Good decision from the referee, no penalty. The Curacao player goes down but no challenge from the defender #GERCUW

#England — Neo-nazi Ryan Ferguson is arrested by police while attempting to provoke anti-racist protesters. When the police don't back the nazis, all that's left of them is a bunch of cowards.

This isn't a hack as the countdown can still start even when the player doesn't have the ball in their hands
Scotland’s Andy Robertson has found a hack to beat FIFA’s new throw-in countdown: Get your team-mates in position before you pick the ball up, which starts the referee’s countdown. Very smart 👏 👏 👏 #Robertson #HAISCO #Scotland

Struggled through that 2nd half, I did hope to stay up for the Scotland match but not sure I will get through 90 minutes. By far the longest I've stayed up in many a year

Images of the 2 possible offsides in the #QATSUI match. The 2nd one looks as close to level as you could get
During the Qatar vs. Switzerland match in the San Francisco Bay Area, a brief technical outage prevented the onside animation graphic from being generated ahead of the penalty awarded to Switzerland in the 14th minute. The issue was quickly resolved. The workflow of the VAR was not affected by this issue and followed the normal procedure in checking the on-field decision. The lines used by the VAR to check the position of the relevant players did not show the attacking player to be in an offside position in either of the two situations immediately before the penalty decision.

I need you all to appreciate the ref cam & the fitness required for viewers to get these incredible angles. These referees fight so hard to get the best angle. And now you see the adrenaline rush we get to be in right place, right time, right angle and best seat in house.

I'm really confused now by FIFA as there was no need for a graphic for that as it was very clearly onside. Showing that graphic will only add to the conspiracies #BRAMOR

#Switzerland goal is a great example of why FIFA should lean into the new 3D offside graphics for onside decisions too. When margins are very tight, showing fans exactly why a goal stands increases transparency, trust, & the overall match experience. #offside #WorldCup

Dale is accomplished in his work. This further supports that many of us who do this work around the world are hearing split feedback on last nights application. Many say bullet point two new clarification supports & below says no. Back to my point the language is confusing.
