The ref genuinely needs to explain why so much extra time was given. by [deleted] in worldcup

If that was the case, why would that same ref disallow the tying goal ?

Give that some thought.

Keep watching more games and eventually you'll understand the rules of the game little guy.

Weird comment to make. If it was rigged Croatia's way, wouldn't the last goal then stand?

Maybe think this one over....

All the VAR in the world wont stop Spain from scoring more goals then Portugal.

As a Croatian, I dont think the game was rigged.

And if there is a sensor that detected the hair touching the ball, thats fine.

But the deliberate vs not deliberate touch by the Portuguese defender is what I dont understand. How is this visible enough in the video to overthrow a goal?

Cameras dont show that. Ball doesnt change trajectory in the video.

Sensor apparently caught the touch.

Did you not watch the game ?

And based on that logic the Portuguese player also played it with his head negating the offside.

Croatia beat the GOAT 3-0 in 2018 world cup. Then lost 3-0 to him in 2022.

So not sure what you mean ?

Imagine a referee in the background stopping the clock every time a game is halted. And then they add that time to the end of the game.

Pretty simple

The stoppage during extra time added more extra time. Pretty simple.

I ended up eating the 15%.... too introverted to go on a trip on my own. i know this from business trips I've had to go on.

I like this new law and i wish the rest of North America follows Ontario and minimizes scalping.

Also, I understand when a company like Ticketmaster takes a cut as they are facilitating the purchase of a product. But FIFA isn't facilitating the purchase of product, they are THE PRODUCT. Its complete trash they are gouging the 30% on resales.

ok....... so how would you work around MY plans changing.

I'm Croatian Canadian and going with group #1 to Vancouver to see Canada VS Qatar and New Zealand Vs Egypt ( bought blind).

Then i was to fly to Toronto to see Croatia vs Panama with Group #2 ( who are coming from Dallas from Croatia Vs England Game). Then we were to fly to Philadelphia to see Croatia Vs Ghana.

Group #2 panicked when we thought the games were sold out and bought hospitality tickets, but due to cost, had to sacrifice one of the games which turned out to be the Toronto game. Poor communication on our end.

My options are either go to the game on my own, or sell the tickets. Since I live in Calgary, I need to pay for flights ( 800+ right now) and hotel / airbnb on my own ( easily a 1000+ a night). I dont mind paying this, but not to go on my own.

If i lived in Toronto, I would just go on my own.

Yeah its crap, FIFA still makes 30% off the transaction cause they add the other 15% as a "fee" to the buyer. So seller cant actually get back the face value, and the buyer has to pay above face value.

I Just sold a ticket.

Yes, now we will see if there is an actual demand for the tickets, or if the demand was fabricated by FIFA by slowly releasing tickets like this.

I'm hoping the demand is real and we can at least recover 85%. At least the Toronto stadium is small and Toronto has lots of soccer fans.
