Well, the Ecuador team clearly didn't take a bribe but the VAR might have
(there was a specific report of a bribe attempt for Ecuador to let Qatar win with a single second half goal)

Those replays did a terrible job explaining how it was offsides. That's a very bad look.

The #10 for Ecuador seems to be wearing a yellow oven mitt on his arm (Senor Socko?).

"He was definitely offside, the picture on these new giant TVs (that we get to keep) are so clear that we couldn't possibly be mistaken."

A leg... how do you spot a LEG offside...
I hope this doesn't degenerate into every goal getting a VAR

Man, the offside rule is a damn hair trigger these days. Get a fingernail out of line at any point in the preceding minute and it’s all over.

So the VAR graphic they put up was CGI just so they could hide the 2 Qatar men visibly behind the player

Oh it was actually offside. Thought it was a fix. Lucky I didn't post my rant.
But I'll still post f*** BBC for not showing the opening ceremony.
