The keeper deflected it past the defender but the good thing was she got a decent amount of power and kept the shot down, lost count how many times I've seen someone blast it and it flies miles over the bar.

I take it the spit was caught on camera? Should still result in a lengthy ban I think if the ref has missed it.

Yes, after the backpass was given it showed Duggan showing it to the ref, they haven't shown it since though so haven't really made much of it.

Ah, I saw the slow-mo replay of that of her showing the ref. Missed the start of the game, so I couldn't understand what was happening - it looked like she was rubbing in sun cream there was so much of it.

Disgusting.

That's a goal. Come on you slow VAR gits...

Marsman · 23 Jun 2019 at 17:19

Great pass and a great finish from White.

Jokester · 23 Jun 2019 at 17:19

VAR makes a good decision!

robfosters · 23 Jun 2019 at 17:20

Ridiculous amount of time! One glance was all you needed there.

Cameroon players are nuts!

Jokester · 23 Jun 2019 at 17:21

Might need the offside rule explained to them.

Yes, I went there.

Cameroon protesting that they were proven wrong

Playing the race card now. :/

el_dazza · 23 Jun 2019 at 17:27

Cameroon playing the race card? Jesus wept. Pathetic.

Jokester · 23 Jun 2019 at 17:27

Will Cameroon even come out, they’re saying it was racist to allow the decision apparently.

robfosters · 23 Jun 2019 at 17:28

If all else fails, pull the racist card

Randomface74 · 23 Jun 2019 at 17:31

Red card the whole team. No room for that conduct in this game.

Marsman · 23 Jun 2019 at 17:32

Only an American can refer to the World Cup as a World Cup Championship.

I'm assuming they saw the replay with one of the England players offside (but not interfering with play) and were angered by this.

Playing the race card is stupid, they're the lowest ranked side left in the tournament and have clearly lost their heads. It's a shame the ref is so passive cause a number of their players should be booked/off.

Missed the last 10 minutes as my garden clearing guy came and come back to find I've missed the best part of the game.

Just heard the race card being played, who are they saying are racist England, referee or FIFA because I've not heard anything from the crowd?

Wasn't really clear, we just got a report that the Cameroon players were crying in the tunnel and claimed racism (seemingly towards fifa).
