In last Sunday's two 1/8 knockout matches, the referee made two obvious misjudgments. The whole world has fallen into the condemnation of referees, but many people have clearly seen deeper problems and pointed their finger at FI-FA, which has repeatedly denied the introduction of high technology and the increase of line referees. FIFA's referee system has once again been questioned and criticized by all walks of life.
In fact, FIFA is not willing to change its position. As early as the meeting of the International Football Council in March this year, FIFA had already refused to use camera positioning technology to judge goals, offside and other difficult problems. However, the Football Association said that it could consider adding two assistant referees. Blatter's conservative position doesn't seem to have changed much after two obvious misjudgments in the contest. In response, the FIFA president first apologized to the injured team for misjudgment and said that FIFA would re-examine the use of goal line technology in football matches.
And these are far from satisfying the "public opinion." FIFA's indifference to misjudgment has reached an "outrageous" level. Fans want to see solutions, not official statements. Under pressure, FIFA had to find some scapegoats first, and those "problem referees" became the first targets to be dealt with.

Match: Germany 4: 1 England error: England's goal was killed. In the 38th minute, England 1: 2 fell behind Germany. At that time, German goalkeeper Neuer stood in front, Lampard lifted his foot and shot, and the ball hit the lower edge of the crossbar and bounced into the goal line. The slow motion shows that the ball crossed the goal line for more than half a meter and then bounced out due to rotation. Neuer turned to hold the ball and quickly hit it to continue the game. The referee, Larry Onda, said nothing about this and allowed the German team to attack. England's efforts to equalize the score were thus stifled.
Post-game reaction
Capello (England coach) "That misjudgment was a turning point in the game, after which the Germans could play a good defensive counterattack. Germany is a great team. They played well in this game. We did make a lot of mistakes, but what I want to say is that the mistakes made by the referee are even bigger and more outrageous! " Diego perez (Uruguayan famous player) "This 80cm is always the darkest part of the World Cup. You know, this is a match between two former world champions in the World Cup knockout, and the problem will not disappear within a few hours. "

■ error penalty playback
Match: Argentina 3: 1 Mexico error: offside ball was awarded. On June 27th, in the South Africa 1/8 World Cup final, Tevez scored the first goal in the 26th minute. However, the goal was obviously offside, and Mexican players argued around Italian referee Rossidi, but Rossidi decided that the goal was valid after discussing with the linesman for a long time.
Post-game reaction
Tevez (Argentine player) "At first, I thought the goal was invalid, but then I saw him signal the kick-off at half-time. I know I'm offside, and I know this goal is selfish, but the referee has ruled it valid, so we can only say that we are lucky. " Rossetti, the referee of Marca newspaper in Madrid, sent the Argentine to the quarter-finals. Italian Rossetti should be criticized for misjudging Argentina's first goal. Travis is obviously offside. "

Competition: Brazil 3: 1 C? te d 'Ivoire
Error 1: I didn't see fabiano's handball match. The 50th minute, fabiano staged a "wonderful" second goal. He first hit the ball into the penalty area with his left hand, then unloaded it with his right hand, crossed the three-man defense of C? te d 'Ivoire and volleyed it in. Fabiano handball twice in a short time, but neither the referee Lanos nor the second assistant referee actually saw it. After the game, fabiano admitted that he had handball. Mistake 2: In the 88th minute when Kaka was sent off with a red card, 18 Keita of C? te d 'Ivoire fell to the ground in pain after colliding with Kaka, but in fact Kaka didn't make any offensive action at all. Keita was directing and acting completely, but the referee Lanois took out a second yellow card from Kaka, and the Brazilian golden boy accumulated two yellow cards and one turned red, so he had no choice but to end up.
Post-game reaction
Kaka (Brazilian player) "I don't understand why fabiano's goal is replayed again and again on the big screen (fabiano's second goal is played several times on the big screen of the stadium) and why the referee's mistakes are inevitable. In that case, there is no need for FIFA to play replays on the big screen. " Diego maradona (Argentine coach) "Brazil doesn't play well, but Brazilians will get by. They even use their arms. It is obvious that fabiano scored the goal with his arm. He touched the ball twice with his arm. "

Game: USA 2 Slovenian error 1: The goal of the United States was blown to the 86th minute, and Ai Du scored a free kick in front of the goal. As a Marikin whistle, Coulibaly thought that the goal was invalid before the American player fouled, but the slow motion showed that almost all Slovenian players fouled in the penalty area.
Post-game reaction
Donovan (American team player) "To be honest, I really don't understand. I don't know why they stole our last goal I don't know why he (the referee) is so boastful. Of course he won't tell us. " Bradley (coach of Team USA) "We still don't understand why the last goal was invalidated? Nobody knows! You know, the players have great expectations. They are fully committed to the game. All they want is a fair result. "
