craigcwwe Posted June 12, 2021 Share Posted June 12, 2021 Poor from Wales going forward and should be one down if not for Haris Seferovic at the end there. He's so unbelievably useless at tournaments for the Swiss. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

swansongs Posted June 12, 2021 Share Posted June 12, 2021 Midfield 3 not working, Morrell not offering anything Ampadu doesn't when we're not capable of getting on the ball.

It wasn't a great pass, possibly because the defender was yanking his shirt at the time. It should still be a pen, VAR absolutely should be used for stuff like that which you can forgive the ref for not seeing. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
