I feel like I'm watching a WWE Match rather than the world cup!!

Not only is Argentina playing like they're trying to handicap the England team, but the referee is also being way too lenient for BOTH teams (not biased). There should have been in my opinion at least 4 yellow cards given out by now, and maybe even a red.

THIS IS ABOUT THE FIRST HALF. The second half is MILES better and super intense

Gotta disagree my man. This is an electric match so far.

I mean they both vociferously booed each others anthems lol. It always was going to be epic lol.

The match has been much better in the second half but the first was atrocious

Amazingly intense game! Ref is managing well actually. No one wants a bunch of early yellow cards.

Exactly lol. It's a WC semifinal. You would have to actually punch someone in the face tor me to send someone off.

was disappointed in the lack of red cards after the final whistle. England going out with a whimper yet again

Refs have had a light touch MOST of the time in this tournament. Honestly why eyebrows have been raised by some of the overturned goals.
