Argentina player just "elbowed" and England defender, referee played on and Argentina nearly scored.
Ref was then told about the incident by a video ref. As in Rugby, play was stopped, the ref went to the touchline, watched the incident and then proceeded to send the Argentina player off.
Video refs? Retrospective bans for diving?
The memory of Septic Sepp is starting to fade already.
My only worry about video refs is the game becoming more and more a TV sport. I know it is already but it could potentially reach the stage where you are more detached from the game whilst attending than you are whilst sat at home. Got real fears of Sky having "Refwatch sponsored by Specsavers" taking two mins to review something whilst those at the game are twiddling their thumbs.

Is the gap in skill and ability, around the world, closing? Although Vanuatu did not win a game, they were within 1 goal of Germany and Mexico. I was there a couple of years ago. It's like Littleborough with Palm trees.

England 1 up v Mexico with 10 to play. Up against it though with shocking ref giving 2nd yellow/red against England for absolutely nothing! Video assistance available too but the ref refused to use it.

Well done England! Semi final v Italy Thursday 11.45am
Is this really an England football team??? They've absolutely hammered the Italians, it's 3-1 going into injury time but England should have had a lot more than 3 goals. The Everton lads in the team look very special and you have to hope that they can progress in the first team there.
Well done to Paul Simpson's side.

And in the Toulon tournament our u21 team are looking to retain their title from last year. The lad Embleton scored in the last 2 games - scored against Dale in the Checkatrade Trophy game for Sunderland.
The full team and youth teams now all look very strong when everyone's fit. Just a case of turning this into success. Started with the Toulon lads yesterday; now for the U20s today.
