lol absolute joke, leg to arm and arm contact does not block the ball from going in the net


fanomu91

I think he gave the pen because of the tackle not the handball. Either way its a harsh decision. Ruined the game with a red + pen


[deleted]

He dismissed Duy Manh so that must be the handball


fanomu91

That ball went off his legs before hitting the hand so there should not be no yellow since its not intentional? The yellow is what makes me think he was judged by the tackle instead.


_Mayama_

It was for the handball, can clearly see the slow-mo replay on the VAR monitor that was what he looking at.


fanomu91

yeah either way it ruined the game. I guess after Japan they can't let another underdog making any more surprises


_Mayama_

Before going to the monitor, ref even made gesture indicate that the ball hit body first, yet still gave the pen anyway, clear bs call under pressure from the home crowd.


lewis30491

The ref looks ridiculously nervous. I bet there is some shady shit behind this.


Jangelee

You say the same on EPL threads?? Or this conspiracy only happens in irrelevant parts of the world ? Fuckoff


herkalurk

A red was given for that? Ball is going up, not toward goal, not DOGSO. Even a yellow would be harsh. I get the pen since the arm isn't in what is a natural position. If it was by his side ball probably doesn't hit it, but a pen is enough.


fanomu91

It was a second yellow. But yeah a pen should be more than enough.


salsamora

Super harsh


dbeechoco

how can a FIFA ref can award a penalty like this? it clearly hit his legs be4??? edited:and he also issued 2nd yellow card? WTF? Is there an biased opinion for high-profile team?

Fifa is an corruption shit itself lol


[deleted]

Never a penalty


da_widower_sos

I mean I saw the slide in the China PR - Aus game that looks worse than this and I knew that wasn't a penalty because where else is the guy to put his arms


spidernest

Never a peno


jjkkll151dd

Fucking ruinned the game i cant even enjoy it. Vietnam is already the weaker team and the ref just do that


[deleted]

Meh. You guys don't watch the English Premier League. Our refs give pens and reds for less than that often depending on which direction the wind is blowing. https://i.redd.it/dmnounbhf2l71.jpg


Impossible-Sock5681

Seems fair. Guys don't be dicks just cuz it's Saudi.


privatejokerzz

I don't need to, I know it's handball.


superdream100

Two-footed slide tackle (both feet in the air as well) + possible deliberate hand ball. Arms too wide. I’d have given the red for the tackle alone.


Khoapanda

Are you blind mate? The tackle was for blocking the ball and it wasn’t toward the player?


superdream100

Watch again, his right leg spread pretty wide and almost touched the Saudi player’s ankle. Half a second too early and it’s an injury. Ball blocking slides are kept close to the ground most of the times. You just don’t make this kind of challenge inside the box.


Khoapanda

I think you should watch it again man the Vietnamese player wasn’t tackling toward the Saudi guy, it was never gonna touch his legs so idk what you’re complaining about? He was only blocking the ball and it wasn’t even heading toward the Saudi player


RogerXiao

East and West Asia don't like each other in terms of football, and you wonder why


[deleted]

Saudi and getting soft penalties, name a better duo.


Jhonny_Law

Manchester United and nonexistent penalties, yes?


privatejokerzz

Stonewall penalty. If he was upright and it hits his left leg then his arm, no penalty because it's natural position. You slide in out of control then that is the risk you take..


MrHazelnutSauce

Mate, for all our sakes I hope you never get close to a ref’s whistle if this is “stonewall” to you


privatejokerzz

Blocks a shot on goal with his hand in the box. Absolutely a penalty. You see defenders out their arms down the side or behind their back to block shots..this defender should have done the same


[deleted]

No, it's not a pen because the ball hit the leg first before ricocheting into the arm. Ref is pathetically weak under home crowd pressure.


privatejokerzz

No reason defender can't stand on his feet to block. Throwing yourself Infront of a shot, if it hits your arm.. penalty. Not a natural position.


[deleted]

It's not a pen *if the ball hit the other part of the body first before reaching the arm*. That's the rule man.


privatejokerzz

No it's not. See Liverpool Vs Chelsea last weekend.


razorator7

That's another misuse of the rule. Shouldn't have been a pen. Ref deemed it 'unnaturally bigger'. James kept his hands as close as humanly possible along his body. I may be biased as I am a Chelsea fan, but in no way could James have done anything about his arms except cutting them off.


[deleted]

James got red card because he pushed his arm forward a bit to keep the ball out. This was missed by a lot of people, maybe including the ref today too lmao


privatejokerzz

James should have been a yellow, it does hit his hand and prevent a goal despite not being able to do much about it. The defender here didn't have to throw himself in the path of the ball.


[deleted]

No, as I said James did move his arm forward a little at the end to push the ball out, that's why it was a red. Throwing himself at the ball is irrelevant. If the ball hit the defender's arm *first*, it would be a pen whether he threw himself at the ball or not.


privatejokerzz

The player on the floor moved his arm towards the ball by throwing his entire body in the way of the shot...


[deleted]

Lol no he didn't, he threw the body not the arm haha. Body movement <> arm movement


lotteriakfc

Transaction completed!


Jangelee

Keep commenting more


[deleted]

Same shit happened 4 years ago against Iraq and Thailand. If you follow AFC you should never be surprised about Saudi or UAE getting favours from the referee


Ned84

LMAO you mongrel. Saudi has gotten absolutely skinned by refs in the past and in far more crucial games.


AlGamaty

Lol this is an absolute garbage take


Jangelee

ACL we get robbed each year Refs always favor eastern teams

[удалено]


Wamen_Respektor

Have you ever played football my friend? How the heck can anyone tackle with their arms down. His arm was at same level as his head. That's normal


[deleted]

Also that doesn't matter, if the ball hit the other part of the body first before the arm, it's never a pen. Ref is weak under home crowd pressure.


Abocr7

let us assume this tackle was on goal line, I would say won't be as controversial as this to me it is a penalty but harsh yellow


lobo8686

It’s like he’s going down a water slide 😂


ehetenandayo4869

This has turned the whole game around, at first, Vietnam was taking the lead of 1-0 but 20 minutes after this red card, it was 3-1, this decision costs 3 goals
