You are rather being emotional than factual.

You think football decisions are made like your monkey goal post five-aside soccer.

Rojo did not commit any penalty.
Go and read FIFA rules concerning hadlng balls that can result in a penalty.

Your blame should rightly go to Ighalo and the lack of concentration and focus from your team in the dying minutes.
Wtach the way the Iceland and Coratians players hande the Argentines and compare that to Nigeria.

They tried but luck and lack of focus was not on their side.
i just finished reading it and it says: ONCE A PLAYER'S ARM IS STRETCHED FROM THE BODY AND TOUCHES THE BALL THEN ITS A PENALTY. rojo's arm wasnt on his body so what are u saying.

This screenshot you're sharing about even contradict your view. Rojo nodded his ball nd it touched his arm while on air. That's no pk. No be say na today we dey watch match. Let's stop acting bitchy cos it involved naija. The ref gave us a call for a soft pk. That wouldn't have been given on another day. The ref was fair. Ighalo nd our defenders threw away the game.

VAR is still dependent on referee's decision and the call was a good call.

I was told since my few years existence on earth even right from school that any body who touches a game of football with had either directly or indirectly is a foul... Argue with your gods

Was the penalty against Nigeria in Iceland game really a penalty?

This is for the VAR and the referee
Africans can shout racism where there Is non. The rule is very clear on this. The Iranian player headed d ball to d Portuguese' hand, that's a clear penalty because d hands was not hidden on his body.


For the case of Nigeria, Igalo did not head d ball but rojo did. So it's not and can never be a penalty.
All d people saying it was a penalty are not football lovers. People dat are always watching football knows dat dat can never be a penalty.

I was so disgusted by mikel n igalo for arguing with d ref about dat being a penalty when they both know within them dat it wasn't.

His hand movement was pure reflex cause he needed to jump to head the ball. Good call by the ref and var. we should learn to seperate emotion and sentiments from football and rather blame our lack-lustre performance on the crop of players we have. Our finishing was very poor and we afforded the Argentinan strikers too much space going forward. I thought we'll field a more robust defense and box messi in a corner just like the Croatians and Icelanders did but we just let him roam freely. Hope we do better at the next World Cup.
Forget reflex did u see the handball penalty given against portugal vs iran did the player do it intentionally
Re: VAR During Nigeria Vs Argentina Match: Worldwide Reactions by jimcaddy(m): 8:34am On Jun 27, 2018
Abeg what are we moaning about. How about flogging the bulldog that missed from 8 yards out.. Had he scored that ball, will he be protesting handball or no handball. You can't give what you don't have. This is what a white man will always use to be better than a black man. Sheer common sense and intelligence. Argentina players got away with decisions cleanly because they were intelligent. The same way Ramos got away with breaking someone's shoulder. I am glad that we are out. France will so destroy us like they did last world cup. Gernot Rohr was so tactically and technically inept. Going back to the stupid drawing board again...

If Ighalo had scored the goal, would you be here saying bullshit? What about the first penalty, did anyone even spot it before the ref blew? So he wasn't bias when he awarded the first penalty which wasn't even worth it but suddenly became biased afterwards sore losers.

That was one of the best ref so far in the tournament.
No sane ref would award that penalty because it didn't in anyway stop or even interrupt a goal scoring opportunity in fact it even aided the Nigerian striker and Ighalo only started protesting after he had missed a perfect chance
Guy may God bless you richly... This is the fact you just said. When the ref awarded the first penalty even when Nigerians never expected it.. we didn't blame the ref. The so called stupid as slow as snail Ighalo ... after he missed that wonderful chance to score that goal... he now went and protested for AWOOF penalty. Of which that was never a penalty but HEAD TO HAND BALL. it's obvious we never have any good striker... eheanach, ighalo are just flop in this tournament.

Nigeria Croatia, that was a clear penalty.

The one against Argentina was 70% penalty. Because balogun was struggling with mascherano and even pushed his but mascherano still held on to him.

If mascherano was sensible enough to fall when e pushed him it wouldn't have been a penalty.

But for me it was a penalty but few refs will not award it.

No need explaining anything to anybody. They are just allowing dere emotions override their sense of reasoning. That wasnt a penalty. Even before the VAR call, 5 of us who watched it in my house concluded it wasnt a penalty

the guy nodded the ball unto his hands. its not a penalty.
it could have been a penalty if the first point of contact was his hand and not head.

you truncated your own line of thought - typical of a Blackman.

You didn't tell me the rule that limits the number of penalty a team should have in a match. Opinions are divided on the matter. We shall see in the coming days. The same penalty was given against Portugal and awarded to Iceland too.


@topic

Those non-Nigerians inspired me. Some stupid Nigerians are supporting Argentina because of messi.

Was the hand moving towards the ball with the intention of blocking it?

You're spot-on bro. Rojo's hand didn't move to obstruct the movement of the ball,so its ball to hand and in FIFA's rule, it's a no penalty. Ighalo was rather dumb not to have scored from a gifted ball and position.
