      My reading of the below, means that the VARs can and should intervene….

      VAR only intervenes in the course of a match when the officials have made a 'clear and obvious error' in one of four key areas.

      Goals
      A close offside decision is the most common reason for VAR being consulted after a goal has been scored, but shirt-pulling and other infringements can cause goals to be chalked off.

      Penalties
      The most subjective and arguably problematic area. Penalties can be awarded or rescinded using VAR if there has been a 'clear and obvious error' in the original decision.

      Straight red cards
      Violent conduct and dangerous tackles can be penalised using VAR. Second-yellow cards cannot.

      Mistaken identity
      If the referee sends off the wrong player

        ^ well in that case, you’re both correct, it is failing.

                Actually they performed and defended pretty well against Belgium in the first half of their opening match. I didn't watch the second half where they conceded three goals, though.

                            If we're being honest England hasnt played a good team yet.  Let's see how they do in their last group game 😉

                              We can say the same about Belgium too, but Belgium is stacked with talent.

                                You're right, but who else has scored 6?

                                    Not hating on England at all though and Harry Kane is probably the best out and out pure striker in the game right now….it's a toss up between him and Lewandowski in my book.

                                          You guys must have had some real fun today watching proceedings at IHUK,  first that high scoring win of the Three Lions and then Japan holding up against the Senegalese, a team that I find is real fun to watch.
                                          England v. Belgium is going to be a (if not THE) highlight of the group stage. If the Lions win that one, and perhaps survive a penalty shoot out once the knockout games will have started, I'm ready to believe in a title chance.
