Švedski sudija komentarisao penal protiv Hrvatske: Većina ljudi nije vidjela šta je Vlašić uradio prije povlačenja

The article discusses a controversial penalty decision made by Norwegian referee Espen Eskås during a football match between Croatia and Portugal. Initially, Eskås did not award a penalty after Nikola Vlašić appeared to pull back Portuguese defender Gabriel Veiga in the Croatian penalty area. However, after reviewing footage via VAR, he changed his decision and awarded the penalty, citing Vlašić's handball. The decision sparked debate, particularly regarding whether the handball was justified under the high standard of fouls at the World Cup. Swedish referee Victor analyzed the incident on social media, stating that while the handball was not expected to trigger VAR intervention due to the high threshold, it still constituted a foul. He emphasized that Vlašić had already struck Veiga in the face before making contact with the attacker’s leg, which he argued amounted to three separate infractions. Victor concluded that the VAR correctly intervened due to the clear nature of the offense and noted that Vlašić should have received a yellow card for stopping a promising attack.

Igor Štimac prokomentarisao sporne sudijske odluke na meču Hrvatske i Portugala

Igor Štimac, bivši trener Zrinjskog, komentariše sporne sudijske odluke iz meča Hrvatske i Portugala na Svjetskom prvenstvu. On navodi da Hrvatska često trpi neravnopravno suđenje, ali ističe da i druge manje fudbalske nacije imaju slične probleme. Štimac tvrdi da Vatreni imaju manje razloga za žalbe jer su osvojili medalje i postigli vrhunski rezultate. Pominje kontroverzne sudje na Euro 1996. i kaže da su odluke moguće biti drugačije ako su uloge timova bile zamijenjene. Takoder kritizira upotrebu VAR-a, smatrajući ga korisnim alatom samo kad se koristi pravilno, a ne kao sredstvo za pogrešne odluke. Komentira i poništeni ofsajd Hrvatske zbog dodira lopte s kosom, tvrdeći da su pravila jasna i da je takva odluka neprikladna.
