Laughing pretty hard about the Croatia gripes about officiating. Do we not remember all the favourable calls and non-calls that went their way four days ago?

Not the finest goalkeeping display on both ends of the field here.

Handling the ball involves a deliberate act of a player making contact with the ball with his hand or arm. The referee must take the following into consideration:

the movement of the hand towards the ball (not the ball towards the hand)

the distance between the opponent and the ball (unexpected ball)

the position of the hand does not necessarily mean that there is an infringement

The above is from FIFA.

Also, VAR was not used in the correct manner.

Just imagine France loses now, Lloris will be the biggest goat in history.

Both goalies have sucked, Croatia’s goalie not diving on either goal is poor goalkeeping. Lloris, that was just stupid

Croats need to get the ball in the box. I have a sense this ref wants to equal up penalty calls since he really didn't want to call the first one.

Giroud just mailing it in. Hard to imagine a starting striker in the World Cup who has yet to have a shot on net all tournament.

Why wasn’t that a corner? Clearly deflects off French foot.

Giroud is going to be a pretty undeserving World Cup winner.

You saying he was forced into it?

And now he's running around just looking for a chance to award a make up one?
