I remember doing something similar in high school. Only instead of a save on the first attempt, the PK taker missed the net. Ref called it back for me coming off my line. I made a save on the next one, called it back again and gave me a yellow, and then I made a third save.

The opposing team then scored from play soon after and won in the end. :lol:

Pretty sure Club de Cuervos counts as a documentary.

Chicharito to LA Galaxy is apparently a go.

USMNT midfielder Michael Bradley will reportedly be out for up to four months due to an ankle injury he suffered playing for Toronto FC in the 2019 MLS Cup final against Seattle. That was the MLS Cup final, in November.

So VAR has the ability to measure 2 nanometers offside and call off goals, but they don't send a guy off for this:

Doucoure punched two Spurs in the face last week and only earned a yellow. VAR is ridiculous.

If they hadn't reviewed it via VAR, fine. They missed it... no biggie. The fact that they reviewed it and just said "nahhh... he's good." C'mon.

VAR should only be for goaline decisions.

Instant Replay in all sports should only be for scoring plays.

Stop the madness.

I believe it was the Dutch? Finnish? One of those other leagues over there, that are going to implement VAR and unless it's a clear offsides that can be determined in 25 seconds or less, they stick with the call on the field. I like that route. I think instant replay should be for obvious missed calls and that's it.

- League One side Tranmere Rovers (currently in the relegation zone) defeat Watford in extra time to advance in the FA Cup. Man U going to be making the trip to Prenton Park.

lol. Look at the state of the pitch on the game winner. I know it was a long match with extra time and what not, but they'd be better off playing in my backyard.

Yeah... was a freaking mess. Hopefully tomorrow there's another FA cup upset.

Although with Tottenham and Saint's current form, it wouldn't be that big of an upset. ;)

I just don't want to see Eriksen play again. That entire situation needs to be put out to pasture.

Che Adams? I buy that dude as my backup striker in basically every FIFA career.

I may be in the minority, but I’d have rather just lost than have to do a replay.

Spurs have like 13 healthy players. Another game on the calendar does little to help the current issues.
