My problem with VAR and ref decision making this world cup is the following: fouls are missed all game long in every single game without review, corner kicks and goal kicks are called wrong all the time without review, diving is often missed and not called, fouls that are missed where a team has a chance to score but doesn't are often not reviewed (no one knows if the team would have scored without the foul), then, in the biggest moments, VAR seems to be brought in to change the course of a game. This has ruined so many great moments and some entire games this world cup. So what needs to change? In my opinion, they need to give each team 2 or 3 challenges per half. Only when challenged by the team is VAR used. This would solve many issues and criticism in my opinion. Many sports use a similar system and it works pretty well, definitely better than whatever FIFA is currently doing.

It’s crazy how many moments in this World Cup refs have ruined by following these ridiculous rules that have been implemented yet which are only followed sometimes.

Ref in Argentina vs Egypt took all the joy out of the game for me and I wasn’t even rooting against Argentina. And it was such a good game but I wasnt able to enjoy it, good job FIFA
