Was it a red card? Was he offside? Was that a penalty? That’s what Instant Replay is for, to take another look and see who got the calls right — and who got away with something.

5:04 there is a reason not everyone isn't a ref, THAT IS NOT A RED, at best a yellow
This guy is not very knowing of the rules
just to let you know, if you were looking from the same angle as the ref at that time, you'd do the same, cuz it's easy to say anything when you see everything on replay and not in real life
first non offside call is a great one
Go timbers
simon borg should be a mls ref
MLS referees are shit
If you were a ref, both teams would
finish with 7 players 🙂
shit rules
Another 10 red cards a week, Simon?
Why did Andre Blake switch his number from 1 to 18 ? and he left adidas and now wears under armour wtf.
Simon is just using hindsight, if were a referee of course he would not gibe all those red cards he comments about. Its after him looking at it fro. different angles and slowmo but if he were in the libe setting he would keep cards in his pocket as well.
I thought these came out on Wednesday!!! But this says 2 days ago so Monday's?
In regards to the handball at 6:23, USSoccer had a National Camp where they discussed this exact scenario. Slide tackles such as that are considered 'last ditch efforts', he was late and out of position, and his only option to defend was to take a risk and slide. The risk landed his arm in, yes, an arguably 'natural' position, as he attempted to protect his fall… But it also increased the size of his body and it was a risk he took in putting his arm in one of the places the ball is expected to go.
That was a missed handball.
The BORRRRRG is back!
Thankless task refereeing.
THE LA GALAXY REF WAS AWFUL
The Van Damme one's need to be revoked. Total bullcrap. Dive's that blatant are what are ruining the sport
I would love to know the commentators qualifications to judge a Refs call or no call. Ever officiated a heated high level match? Ever called the perfect match? This commentator is why I seldom come to the MLS page.
For anyone yelling at Geiger about the first PK, that was 100% the AR's call. Notice how Geiger delays before pointing to the spot? That's him waiting to here what his AR says about where the foul occurred. The AR has a much better view of where it occurred so it's his decision.
Also it was offside anyways sooooo that's awkward.
First two Atlanta goals offside?
the Altidore one WAS a penalty, but not because of the arm. if you look st his legs you'll see he gets tripped by another defender
Honestly, just seems like the refs made a ton of great calls and only a handful of questionable ones.
The 'studs up' rule is absolute bullshit. It's the kind of rule someone who has never played soccer would write. There is no possible way to play the game with your studs facing the ground the entire game.
Axel Hooeeyberry? hahah
jelle van damme shouldn't have been sent off it's clear that he made zero contact with that Portland player and that Portland player deserves an Oscar because that's some of the best acting I've seen. he injured himself when he jumped over van dammes shoe I think that the Portland player deserves to be banned for at least a match. This is a perfect example of why soccer in general needs to be use replays if you agree like this comment!!!!!!
This guy is either stupid or just saying things for entertainment
MLS hates Philly confirmed.
Chara is a little bitch lol
Holy shit. the refs are embarrassing.
Hey there. RCTID. Van Damme shouldn't have gotten that 2nd yellow (although he probably would have gotten one later). Terrible call. If there's no contact, it's hard to justify a card in my eyes. That being said, I don't think Guzman is a "diving pussy." He was just avoiding the contact (understandably), then tripped on himself and landed awkwardly on his shoulder. Unfortunate for all involved. I was hoping the suspension would be rescinded but it doesn't look like that's the case. Scoreboard. RCTID.
That second yellow on van damme is fucking ridiculous
nagbe got a red cause it was reckless it doesn't matter if he didn't touch him it's in the FIFA laws of the game so for all you dumb fucks saying he shouldn't have even gotten a yellow, shut the fuck up he should've been gone
MLS is becoming the NFL… no fun league
Smh. Borg's analysis is so misguided. I will be the first to say that I have questioned many of toledo's decisions in his games. Of course he is going to make the argument that van damme attempted to trip him here which it does look like he did, especially when you watch the play at full speed. However I thought the 2nd yellow was very harsh, and saying he stopped a promising attack is a stretch here. Why the fuck is Borg bringing up impeding the progress of an opponent here??? That does not apply at all in this situation. On top of it he thinks there should have been 5 additional red cards issued every week. This guy literally is allowed to commentate a video because he yells like a lunatic and that's it.
Remarkable display of diving by Portland. Guzman must've really wanted Van Damme gone if he's willing to dive so hard that he injures himself.
I dont see how nagbe's was deserving of a red? There was nothing in it
Portland really sold the every situation to the ref. Van damme always gets cards so I don't think anything could help his situation. I seen the video on the refs but they are never consistent, I know they love red cards and penalties.
Chow altidore is so big but fall with a little tap…
That ref looking directly at the player's foot being stepped on at 9:26 is totally blind. How can you be that shitty and still be a ref?
There better be some disciplinary action after this week… ahem Portland… ahem ahem Dallas…
Portland Timbers, Diving sacks of shit.
i knew colombus's goal was offside darn wouldve been good with a clean sheet
Just think. If mensah would've put his studs into the turf going at that speed his foot/ankle would've got broken.
I think Ciman and Van Dame are the Pepe of the MLS
Mls seems brutal this year. A lot of controversy with things like crazy challenges unpunished and challenges punished for nothing. The referees need to act more on these things and should be trained more and the players need to stop going in studs up etc.
Sideline officials are idiots. WTF? They usually have the best view, but never has the balls to make the call?
I'm surprised @Simon gave only two unnecessary red cards here! With all these plays/calls, his misjudgment is quite minimal.
such a fucking wanker the guy who's doing this….fucking likes people getting red cards all the time
