You are not allowed to remove your shirt. It's an automatic yellow card. What an idiot!


Oh man. Giving Brazil, who was already killing them all over the field, 5 mins of 11 on 10? Oof.

Luckily Brazil has decided not to score today for whatever reason.

If you can’t rip your jersey off after scoring a World Cup goal to beat Brazil then what is the point

The fetish for innocuous hand ball penalties is mine, but that’s way, way up there. Very No Fun League of them.

One of the black dudes was also extremely pissed earlier too. Hopefully none of that going on.

For me, I remember when it wasn’t a big deal. Growing up I used to always see players scoring last minute winners and taking their shirt off and celebrating with the fans/team. All for the passion of the game.
