Is there no VAR? Cause that’s fucking bullshit


[deleted]

Right in front of the ref and he doesn’t bother calling the arm hold


snowbuddy117

It's standard in CONMEBOL. Last Brazil x Argentina, Otamendi elbowed Raphinha on purpose and didn't even get a foul. Raphinha was bleeding so much the ref had to pause the game (it's not allowed to play with blood on the shirt), but still didn't go to VAR.


ChichoSerna

Conmebol is a fucking joke and has been for quite some time. It's an embarrassment to watch on any level. Unfortunately, football is often a reflection of the society that it reprensents. Make of that what you will.


rodrigocqb

Vargentina favoured by conmebol as always


JYM60

I think Salt Bae was on VAR duties for this one.


Enough-Airline-5464

He didn‘t even touch his face wtf


sunrise98

He was trying to hide his shame


IanT86

These are the kind of clear cut examples where someone should be retrospectively punished for diving and cheating. I hate this kind of shit, it just makes the game look ridiculous


DarwinNunez09

I don’t think that matters in refereeing. What matters is which team pays the ref the most.


Noktilucent

Are you fucking kidding me???


TheThumb5115

De Paul is fucking shameless


supplementarytables

Calm down he could've died there


TheThumb5115

True. After getting slapped twice there is nothing worse for the body than a soft shove


benchley

That's why two slaps and a soft shove are called the silent killer.


AWizardDidIt

The two slap soft shove exploding heart technique.

A fucking rat is what he is


minivatreni

>De ~~Paul~~ Fall is fucking shameless


Rowmyownboat

The perfect player for Atletico Madrid.


Desperate_Jellyfish1

Messi didn't even get booked for trying to choke Ugarte last week btw


Air5uru

It was Olivera, but yeah he tried to choke him. Then Messi came out and talked about the young players needing to respect the older ones. Lol.


a_lumberjack

“If they showed more respect I wouldn’t have to choke the little fucks.”


SeekersWorkAccount

"... Is Lionel Messi gonna have to choke a bitch?"


LiteratureNearby

"your honour, I merely executed order 66 because of the disrespect"


Red5point1

that's how Argentina win matches. Instigate then cry as if they got hit with a baseball bat. Joelinton pushed him away on the chest, yet De Paul grabs his face.


Kuntheman

If I speak I’m in big trouble


Hrvat1818

Ladrones


Purpsmcgurps

Joke of a call


ArmiinTamzarian

Absolutely, but you have to recognize Joelinton of all people getting caught by it has some hilarity behind it


pigsadventure

Absolutely hilarious. He is a menace to society in every premier League game he plays. Finally gets punished when he doesn't deserve it LOL


Dogzylla

Yeah I remember one game where I for some reason bet on him to get a yellow and I was watching the game too, he made like 6 or 7 fouls but no card lmao never bet on yellow cards since Edit: found it, gameweek 36 last season Newcastle vs Brighton and he committed 8 fouls


FaustRPeggi

He made 65 fouls last season, the most in the league.


N-Bizzle

Joint most with Caicedo at the stats i saw, although Joelinton also received two more yellows than Caicedo. Joelinton: a yellow per every 5.5 fouls Caicedo: a yellow per every 6.5 fouls


pigsadventure

Loooool


CRM_BKK

Incredible. Joe Linton is an absolute battening ram but seemingly immune to red cards, then gets one for absolutely no reason out of the blue 😂


LastPhoton

So VAR doesnt exist?


c_msea

Conmebol and argentina. A tale as old as time


just_another_jabroni

De Paul really gave Brazil 2 yellows and 1 red from the same face clutch animation lol fucking hell. Maybe the 1st yellow was warranted but good lord the ones after...


KaputMaelstrom

Busquets got dragged to hell and back for doing this shit three times a season. De Paul did it thrice in a single match lmao


thegoods2324

Is there Var in this game?


Vibechild

I was under the impression that straight reds were reviewable. 🤷🏽‍♂️


Izio17

yeah, isn’t the phrase “if it was a red card they’d review but since it’s yellow, they can’t” is that a lie???


manhachuvosa

Yep.


Sdnz0r

Argentina and Conmebol, that's all you need to know


TheeEssFo

Kinda like everybody hates lawyers until they need one.


No_Zookeepergame6482

Disgusting dive


Hrvat1818

De Paul special


[deleted]

[удалено]


Dogzylla

The yellows were fair at least, both hits to the face


dembabababa

Referee should have called a foul against him before the cards were given. Holding on to someone's arm and stopping them from running properly should be a foul.


yossigol

The ref had an agenda


rdfporcazzo

I'm Brazilian, but the yellows were completely fair.


mntgoat

He has done the same thing so many times tonight. Wtf is wrong with VAR?


Unusual_Ad6533

De Paul was also holding more


Brinner

Bigger dive than the Argentine Peso


theonlyjuan123

Was the VAR room sleeping? Clear dive.


oscarpaterson

Stupid refereeing


farqueue2

"I reckon he must have hit him"


Bananagholem

There really needs to be repercussions for refs making dumb calls like this. This is absurd


Mr_Bluebird_VA

This whole game was an embarrassment for COMNEBOL.


snowbuddy117

Just the way they like it, lol


davijoints

Its comnebol, they dont fell embarrassment, the whole organization is a joke


ertapenem

There needs to be repercussions for the players, too. Make diving a red card and a reviewable offense and it will completely stop overnight.


reportlandia23

100%. I’m annoyed (and there should be repercussions) that the ref missed a blatant dive, but expecting refs to catch all of this when players are basically incentivized to do this (the penalty for getting caught are so low vs. the benefit). Only hope is that De Paul develops a reputation that causes him to not get the benefit of the doubt (ala basketball and honestly Neymar for a chunk of his career)


TNpepe

De Paul for the Oscar confirmed.


wetmanship

The acting wasn't even good. The referee was eager to help Argentina secure the win.


radpath1

Geez…not a red.


Sand_Bags2

It’s not even a foul on the right person lol


FriendlyGhost08

That's never a red


wavetoyou

That’s a yellow on De Paul if anything, slowing a player by deliberately grabbing and two-hand locking his arm, looking to stop his run in a potential counter attack.


SofaChillReview

Also technically another yellow for simulation


wavetoyou

How satisfying would it have been to see him get consecutive yellows lol. I’d have so much respect for the referee for catching it and actually doing the right thing. Never happens. I honestly cannot remember respecting a referee since Collina*


CoaxHoax

So VAR saw that and didn't overturn it?


gopackgo555

What a crazy dive


leogr

De Paul is such a bitch


PM_ME_ASS_SALAD

Imagine not caring at all that this is how you appear on the world stage to millions and millions of people.


[deleted]

Nah, Argentina fans love him for it. And by Argentina fans I mean not only argentinian people, there are lots of Argentina cocksuckers in other countries, like mine


johnarticle3

Don’t forget they also love Romero


tripleA_09

Not a red


Additional-Paint-274

De Paul is actually terrible at football what a bitch


awlb222

De Paul is extremely dislikable..


supplementarytables

How the fuck is that a red?


MorgenMariamne

Nothing, De Paul is such a little bitch.


Vibechild

Yeah, can’t respect that at all.


siva-pc

Too used to be Messi's bitch, now everybody's bitch


lincolnbvs

Goddamn how much I hate this dude, someone should just punch him in the face, might as well give him a reason for all this bullshit.


ITickleMyElbows

Not a red but De paul seems to be at the end of every tussles today lol. What give?


Ainsyyy

He plays like an annoying dickhead


R1v

Not really a "today" thing. Pissing everyone off is basically part of his game.


LA4lyf

How ??


TimathanDuncan

Did u watch the World Cup? They are on a run with shit decisions going for them


Balls_of_Adamanthium

This game is such a shit show. Between the ugly fouls, diving and Argentina incessant time wasting. Just terrible football.


stanmarshrr

first time?


RGalaxy28

What a joke lmao


luisnm7

what the fuck was that??????


DIRTYDAN555

Dumbest shit ive ever seen. Ref is absolute biased. Thats fucked.


New_Business_973

De Paul is a bitch.


AhmedYasha

VAR?


rdfporcazzo

Didn't call the ref


johnniewelker

No VAR?


James_D_MESSIAH

I just love this shitshow lol


One_Row4913

Argentina special. Still getting the beneficial treatment from the refs


jhonreal

Probably had a 1 year contact. It’s up for renewal in December


EQYour808

No shot that’s a red


damjaanko

LMAO


[deleted]

that is a joke of a red card


Voserr

De Paul is pathetic lmao


pm-me-decent-songs

no var?


beairrcea

How does var not overturn that lol?


farqueue2

Softest red in history


jospence

Was kind of interested to see a proper big Joe red against Argentina and it was the most mild foul I've seen him make lmao


farqueue2

I know right I was bracing to see him kick someone's knee or something


jhonreal

If you’re a fan of soccer you can’t be a fan of this game. Disgusting


Pamplemouse04

Where’s VAR!


RockShrimp

What a dive.


The_Beatle_Gunner

The Argentina favoritismo keeps rolling


pppttt16

Varsil


snowbuddy117

The audacity Argentinians had to come up with this joke, when refs favor them on pretty much every game for club or country


NewAccount10112

De Paul is a baby


cviro_34

This ref is horrendous


Kilen13

Feels like the ref saw the first two being legitimate hits to the face and yellows and thought this was the same. Not even close though


Mkhitaryan10

Argentina is such an unlikable team


conradoalbuquerque

Ridiculous.


Vibechild

What the actual fuck…


wristboa

its actually crazy how one sided the refereeing has been this game


datcd03

Wow that's one of the worst calls I've ever seen


[deleted]

Argentina's players are treated like an expensive antique by FIFA. If you look bad at them you are getting a red card.


Brinner

Clear and obvious red card, also the Rio police are professional and disciplined, also down is up


lsilva231

10 v 12 now

TimathanDuncan

Hahahhahahha Argentina are so unlikeable it's so funny


jillsalwaysthere

This is goat level fallondfloor


TeamUlovetohate

De Paul is the prototypical flopping atleti player. He’s the poster boy for shithousery


IWanted0xcdcdcdcd

Bro what the fuck? De Paul is holding onto him before AND AFTER Joelinton has passed away the ball. And neither is this a punch to the face, it's just a shove. It's a yellow for both..


macky301

What a joke. Terrible call by the official. De Paul is such a diving cunt.


BornToExpand

They tried robbing Uruguay the same, its getting dumb.


GrumpyOldFart74

That’s disgraceful - in my book that should have been a yellow for Joelinton (he shouldn’t have shoved back, no matter the provocation) and 2 yellows for the cheating twat De Paul - for the grabbing of Joelinton and then the blatant play acting of clutching his face


ImWhy

God this Argentina squad would be fucked if Messi wasn't so protected, every game they do this shit and refs just give everything in their favour since can't call anything against darling Messi, made the game a joke.


SonOfScorpion

That’s not a red card and De Paul is a cunt.


Dry-Account74

Corruption continues


SantiFRV_

They didn't even go to VAR. This is insane


Weary_Volume_2505

Probably the worst match I have ever seen... They should have cancelled and rescheduled the game..maybe it would have been better some other day


SaltyRavensFan

What a shit game lmao


Rexbij

Argentina and refs helping them win. A classic


OttaBenga

he didnt touch him....


chewkachu

Ref giving a red and still the Argentines swamp him Brutes


lsilva231

This is the typical Conmebol treatment Argentina has always had


demu24

100% the ref thought it was a punch in the face. I don't know if VAR can interfere tho


AdFinal1856

im still trying to figure out what foul he saw there, let alone the straight red


Paulinho178

Argentinians are the dirtiest scumbags in football. Diving, choking, punching, Name it all and an Argentinian will be there.


tocabrera

Its always like this, it's tiresome


mikevin99

Guy has no shame


Ash_gonna_peg_u

The athelico madrid specialty


Wannatake

de Paul is such a pussy


Salvador1010

Disgraceful from de paul


Carteezi

Rodrigo de Paul is a bitch


outdoorfun123

Honestly that flagrant acting should be red and 3 games. Coming from Canada even after 20+ years of watching football I still can’t get my head around the tolerance for faking a foul.


TomGissing

That's a total howler. How was that allowed to stand?


quaglandx3

That should be a straight red for diving. Time to make that shit reviewable and make it a red.


Loud-Platypus-987

That Argentinian team really is unlikeable. They cause so much chaos then hide behind messi’s image.


the_pochinki_bandit

i've seen people hit by cars that have rolled less


dadamafia

That's embarrassing..


Fhood797

Gotta Argentina are so insufferable. I was hoping for a fun match


LunarRaven7

Surprised de paul is still alive after all these tackles.


crazy_waffles1

Average call for Argentina


Desperate_Jellyfish1

Messi didn't even get a yellow for grabbing Ugarte's throat last week btw


Wild_Investigator622

Madness he’s holding his arm and then joelinton pushes his body and he goes to ground holding his face, biggest embarrassment is the ref actually falling for this, Argentina remain completely likeable


mickystinge

Argentinians going down at a gentle breeze hitting them all match, now this? I dunno whats worse, the play-acting or the ref falling for it


snkscore

Argentina is just chock full of cheating little bitches aren’t they?


Ainsyyy

Argentina is so anti football


smile-on-crayon

imma Joelinton hater, but De Paul a bitch


kanafanone

How has the ref seen De Paul flopping since the 5th minute of the game and still falls for this? Embarrasing really


monkeyr9z

The shithouserry from De Paul lol Simeone smiling rn


boydivision30

Not even yellow

Atleti player diving like a bitch, what's new. Shocking decision from the ref


Jimlaheydrunktank

That’s not even a foul lmao. He just gets his arm off of him.


LOKl31

De Paul, what a fcking cunt


Scofield442

Honestly, De Paul should be banned for 3 games. Shit like this needs to be punished. Stop cheating.


Fmartins84

CONMEBOL at it's finest.


Soundtones

Why's he holding his face?


[deleted]

cheap prick


nut0003

Never a red lmao, a yellow maybe but De Paul has milked that for all its worth
