Still the best. It's only the first game. I am not even an Argentine fan.

wtf why did the ref stop it? i thought if the ball is in a attacking position they'll let that play go through, even if its a bit past stoppage time.

I was surprised the ref stopped it too. I would have let them throw it in and given them one last chance.

FIFA has been pushing for the correct amount of stoppage time at the end of games. Not only pushing it farther after teams waste time in stoppage, but ending the game appropriately. Giving a team extra time just because they're attacking is unfair to the other team. They're being penalized unnecessarily.

Messi has been so terrible with penalties in the last 2-3 years.
Gotta make those.
Iceland is tough to score on...but no excuses when you gotta just beat the goalie from the spot.

The replays and officials have been spot on. Soccer got it right.

Is that a rhetorical question?
