First to admit, don't know the rules, but what a joy to watch, |
|
being able to hear their decisions, the players accepting |
|
decisions, no play acting, no timewasting. no stopping |
|
freekicks. Credit to them and certainly football should take |
|
note. |

And then "VAR" steps in and ruins all what I say! |

2 or 3 times the video reviews have taken an age. As with most |
|
competitions as it has got to the business end more decisions |
|
are questioned, intensity in SFs was quite something. Very |
|
enjoyable to watch |

Now that we have finished with the Men's Football World Cup and |
|
the Rugby League Wrold Cup from 2022 and looking forward to the |
|
Women's Football, Rugby Union and Cricket World Cups later in |
|
2023, one might take time to watch the Men's Hockey World Cup |
|
which started today in India and where England and Wales (for |
|
the first time) are taking part. |
|
It's being shown on BT Sport which I don't take, so I shall miss |
|
it but others may enjoy and compare the officiating, and as a |
|
result the way the game is played, with the football. |
|
Two umpires miked up to communicate with each other and the |
|
Video Official, and usually to be heard by the crowd and the TV |
|
audience. |
|
2 (I think) team referrals to the Video umpire for decsions in |
|
the shooting circle. |
|
Green card 2 minute temporary suspension: Yellow card Temporary |
|
suspension minimum 5 minutes at the discretion of the umpire. |
|
No offside. |
|
Self -pass from free hits(kicks) - the person taking can take |
|
the hit to himself. Speeds the game up no end. |
|
There is very little dissent becuase if player is talking to |
|
the umpire, he is not involved in the game adn the ball is |
|
probaly 30 - 50 yards away and in your circle/goal!! And you |
|
don't play the ball within 5 (not10) metres of a free hit |
|
because if you do you go and sit down for 2 or 5 minutes. |
|
Enjoy everyone |
