Wow.

First time I’ve seen a match end before 90mins due to the whistle being blown early.

Mali have all run off, so he can't be bullied into restarting again!

 

[Taybha]

Now that's what you call a bent ref!

 

[Frutos]

What on Earth is going on?

 

[Postman Pat]

How can 4 officials make such a mess of timekeeping? Its mental.

 

[portslade seagull]

what an awful ref. That was never a red and what happened to extra time

First AFCON game I've watched. Are they all this bad?

Loved the start when the sat at home comentator watching on TV saw a full stand and said "The crowds have come out for this game" only for the camera to pan out and show the 'crowd' was about 100.

Hmmm. If he was bent he wouldn't have sent the Mali player off for that tackle. Rubbish, not bent.

No - some are worse.

 

[Peter Grummit]

Not brilliant for the integrity of African football, sadly.

They have periodic cooling breaks, and it seems that the ref forgot to stop his watch during the last one.

Indeed. Gave Tunisia a penalty, and gave Mali a dodgy red (even passing up the VAR-offered chance to withdraw it).

Not biased. Just bizarrely crap.

That Tunisia/Mali match was such a cock up it was almost surreal.

It was like reverse Fergie time when he blew full time at 85 mins !
Even then to blow just before 90 mins when there had been numerous subs , penalties , var and cooling breaks was bizarre ! Surely the 4th official should have had a handle on it after the 1st incident .

One can understand players singing up for this to put themselves in the shop window.

But who, in their right mind, wants to be in the shop window of a numpty version of Poundland?
