You cant. Brazil's goal never happens if the flag had gone up.

I mean when it’s obvious. That last one had three Brazilians offside by 5 yards. No need to have them run down and put the ball in the net

Then it becomes a judgement. Is it 1 yard? 1/2 a yard?

I see your point. One day someone will get hurt and they'll change it.

This is a play a dont like. Why should the ref stop play? Brazil had the ball and didn't play it out so their girl could get treatment. Obviously they dont care.

1-1 at the half for Spain vs USA. Common Spain!

Teams sure like to make it easy for the USA. Give them a penalty in the first 10 minutes.

Glad to see they answered back.

Should be a good game, but I expect Sweden to take it.

If Canada wins it wouldn't be an upset necessarily.

Canada is ranked 5th, and Sweden is ranked 8th in the FIFA rankings. Should be a closely contested match, I just hope it doesn't go to penalties, such a crap way to determine a winner in the knockout round.

That's a brutal penalty call.

Where is the VAR??

It's a foul, but in a fair world the exaggeration afterwards should negate it.

Consistency would be nice.

Also seeing the Americans being rewarded for diving all over the place is pretty disappointing.

Slight contact and a dive.

It’s a foul, but when both players go for the ball like that, and the defender misses by a centimetre, otherwise playing good defense, it shouldn’t be a 90% chance of a penalty goal.

No chance was that enough contact to warrant a foul or a penalty

I suppose you can't give a yellow for diving after VAR?

If the women want to be taken seriously they need to concede that their refs are not at the standard that a tournament of this level deserves.

Too many teams getting jobbed as a result of complete incompetence to the point that the story of the tournament is the officiating.

Get male refs until they get that area of the game up to scratch.
