    France-Australia didn't have an own goal. Two PKs and Pogba's shot that hit the crossbar and barely bounced in.

    They just ruled Pogba's goal was an own goal by Australia

    Pogba stripped of winning goal vs. Australia

    Only saw highlights of that game. How was a hand ball not called. Forgot who it was on France, but it looked like he was trying
    to break up a lob pass into the low block.

    I missed that game as well (don't know what I was doing sleeping probably) so I have no idea. With VAR available I don't know how something like that could be missed

    You're not referring to this from Umtiti, are you? Because that was called a handball and a penalty. It was Australia's only goal.

    I know some high school coaches who would have been sent off after decision. I'd love to know why that ref allowed the player to come back there
