Hopefully Brazilian nerves play a part, more likely to be a factor the longer it remains 0-0. And let's hope VAR does not become a talking point. Again.
1-1. Guerrero nets the penalty.
The additional VAR check was a total waste of time.
Big blow for Peru, they had to get to HT and let the tension build in the Maracana.
What's the process there - the referee doubting himself; being influenced by players; or someone telling him to double-check?
It was unnecessary and he spent little time reviewing it on the tv. All the while pressure mounts on Guerrero.
Jesus off. Makes it interesting.
I dont even think it's a freekick on the halfway line, shoulder to shoulder and he's edged the attacker out to protect his goalie. The fact he's came in with force should not come into it. Think it's very harsh and unjust ref has made the wrong decision twiceStupid challenge
I'd really hoped that Peru would rise to this, especially after the last mauling that Brazil gave them, but tbh the longer the game went on, the less likely it looked to me that Peru had a clue about how to proceed.
In the last few minutes, jeez even just before the Brazilian penalty for their third goal, Peru were passing the ball about in their own last third, as if they hadn't a care in the world.
A distinct lack of urgency.
I thought it was a penalty. Stupid challenge from the defender given the keeper was sliding out to gather.[/QUOT
You thought that was a pen ? Was thinking you were a bear in a NY hood. Yank though, right?
