      @@gavinpilato6035 Well respected doesn't constitute his poor performance for that game. Two game changing decisions that needed to be made there, if red bulls fail to make playoffs by two points then we will certainly look back on this and see how awful this was. The point is to avoid serious injuries and protect the welfare of the players, and clearly it was missed, not once, but twice. Thus leading me to believe there might have been some sort of bias or foul play here, be it with the teams, league, refereeing crew, players, etc.

      @@gavinpilato6035 As a Red Bulls fan, I can assure you there were many more missed calls than what was shown here. The red card misses were the worst offenses, but Kyle Duncan should’ve received a second yellow when he was beat and stopped a counter attack by pulling the attackers jersey and holding him back. It was one of the most clear-cut tactical foul yellows you could imagine and although the ref called a foul, he somehow didn’t give the second yellow. Idk if he knew he fucked up on the first two earlier and decided to not give a red to “even things out,” but either way it was a third egregious missed red card. There were also tons of poor, inconsistent foul decisions throughout the game. It’s one thing to call a tight or loose game, but a complete other to go back and forth all game long with seemingly no rhyme or reason. Idk about his accolades, but I do know that this was one of if not the worst refereeing performance I’ve seen in the MLS.

And we don't have VAR. And our pay is getting to play for free next season. It's hard. It's not impossible.

    I know it's not really what these videos cover, but how about the amount of time Mendoza gave in MN? Not only was the extra minute+ unwarranted, especially considering it had elapsed after a GOAL KICK, but the original 6 minutes made no sense given the number of stoppages. Not once in the game was there a major injury or VAR, so I really don't know where he got that much stoppage time from. Anyways, it wouldn't've mattered if the Loons players had actually played until the whistle, even if they had no reason to think it would continue after it passed midfield

      MLS and PRO let teams know before the season started that additional time was going to increase to be more realistic, much like was done in the World Cup. Substitutions, cards, and goal celebrations all count toward added time. Also, since Minnesota got TWO yellow cards for time wasting IN STOPPAGE TIME (plus two slow goal kicks), I don't see how the 1:17 additional added time can be considered unwarranted.

    • @gracielynn9623

      Not every referee has bought into it yet, but they’re starting to be an emphasis on adding any intentional time wasting moment on a stoppage time at the end. They are starting to push this in some European leagues, and it also was used in the World Cup. I did not watch that game, was there a lot of time wasting your the end? That may have been where the minutes came from.

They'd have to watch the entire half and record every second they thought was relevant, then add it up to come to a conclusion, and then make a comment of either "yeah, seemed a little long" or "they got it about right."

      Referees, from the start of VAR, are banned from the behavior you mention. They call the game the same with or without VAR. VAR is just a backstop for things missed.
      The way I see it is that the entire game is being held to a higher standard. Referees missed calls all the time in the past. Some were small. Some we thought were obvious on a replay. Now that VAR is there, it looks to some that referees are letting VAR make the decision instead of them when in fact it likely would have been called the same without the chance for a correction.

    First red card argument. Pretty obvious but MLS struggles because they are so inconsistent. How can they miss this?!
    Second one, the header. There’s no violent conduct, both players had arms out, one had more momentum than the other, one jumped higher than the other, BOTH HAD ARMS OUT TOWARDS EACHOTHER, but because one jumped higher and faster he is in the wrong? it’s a 50/50, protect yourself by going into the tackle hard, as basic and learning to pass and move.
    Reyes double foul? First tackle You show one view that doesn’t give the whole Story, he steps in front to cut the pass, the other player tries to hold him back and just isn’t strong enough and doesn’t move his feet so he goes down dramatically… we are getting too soft here people.
    Second tackle is shoulder to shoulder no? Of course he stopped an attack that’s his JOB. SOFT
    TOLKIN has no desire to play the ball, he looks back and stops his run to run some sort of basketball screen. No foul there except tolkin throwing the ball.

    4th: 3:02 Yellow, possible Red for denial of goal scoring opportunity.
    5th: 3:23 Yellows for each. Uncalled for to throw the ball because you're mad. It doesn't "look like" violence but it's a violent action. Unnecessary. The player throwing the ball should be fined for this action.
    6th: 4:22 Penalty. Defender might have touched the ball first but I see the leg making contact with the striker's leg before the ball had contact. I feel he made contact first in order to touch it first.
    7th: 4:55 No Goal. Great strike from the player to put it on target. But it's obstruction on the keeper.
    8th: 5:23 Red. Good use of VAR. Good to bring the ref back to watch review.
    9th: 6:13 Penalty. Defender missed the ball and made contact with the striker in the box. Good use of VAR.
    10th: 6:51 Handball, Inside the Box, Penalty. While the player kept his hand close to him, his motion of his arm puts his elbow in an obstructive position. Perhaps VAR could draw lines from the player's feet compared to the box. Defender starts in the box but might have crossed out of the box by the time the ball hits him. To me it seemed he was within the box, VAR should be able to define his location. I see the defenders Right leg drifting out of the box but his body seems to stay in. Defender pulls his arm closer in the moment the ball hits him.
    11th: 8:16 Easy yellow.
