WHY IS NOBODY TALKING ABOUT.....

Post by vancity eagle »

The perfectly legitimate goal that Iheanacho scored, that was chalked off for no reason.

It wasn't even close to being offside for the guy who crossed the ball , or Iheanacho who headed it in.

The standard of refereeing in Africa is just piss poor. This type of thing is common in the African game. I remember we were robbed against South Africa when Musa scored a perfectly legitimate goal.

Also Iheanacho missed 2 sitters.

Nobody wants to talk about this, they are preoccupied with firing a coach who is topping his group with the majority of games finished.

You are right, it wasn't even close to being offside but Rohr is still crap and needs to go.

I encourage everyone to talk about your treason! And how you supported another country against your own and wished death upon our hero who later died! These are the things we must talk about.

Nacho wasn't offside but Iwobi received the ball and crossed it from an offside position.

Iwobi wasn't offside, the game was garbage but that goal should have stood.

I just saw the video on Facebook, it was a good goal just like the Ahmed Musa goal that was disallowed against South Africa. It seems that African referees are still giving home decisions. Nothing wrong with that goal and it really should be a topic for discussion.
I am happy

and was it even close ?

It didn't even look close at all to me.

I dont know why we are not filing an official complaint, this kind of thing needs to be cut out in Africa. This one will be meaningless, but imagine if this happened in the playoffs of WCQ.

This kind of rubbish needs to be cut out, and then people complain when FIFA do not pick many referees from AFrica.

Just a disgrace.

Either way it is close. I am leaning to the side of it being offside.
