Lets use Spee's feared collective brainpower to remember all the times where refs gave yellows for simulation on this cup, since Fifa doesnt want to tell us because they are just forgetful. With 104 games total, and with players clearly diving like retards all the time, there must be loads of cases to talk about. I mean hell, just on that spain x belgium game alone, belgium players flopped shamelessly without any contact made at least 2 times. I doubt Fifa would be making use of that rule only when it's for a convenient result they want, so lets help them out remember!So, let me start:>1 on Switzerland, playing against Argentina, right after Switzerland has just scored the equalizing goal>1 on Paraguay, playing against the hosts USAso what else, friens?
>>156686165i dont think there was any other, watched some 70% of the games
>>156686165I watched like 95% of the matches and there was one for some team that was going against an African team in the group stages, but I forget who. It happened early and I remember telling a friend "man, maybe this sport is saved" only for them to rarely ever do it again.
>>156686165You won't find a dive like a Switzerland one. Also ref bought into it, and gave Argentine a yellow. Then VAR came into play because the "swiss" had a yellow already and potential red could be given.
>>156686705thats a 2nd yellow tho. Var literally isnt supposed to stick its nose for that
>>156686859Ref had to book someone
>>156686697Very first game, Mexico vs South Africa? I remember them making a show and giving away reds but I don’t recall if there was something for this exact behaviour
>>156686859It is because Paredes was booked. If he hadn't been booked VAR wouldn't have interfered funnily enough.
>>156686705Yellow to Olise
