During the 1978 WC in Argentina black tape was tied around the bottom of the goalposts at all WC matches in recognition of the ‘political prisoners’ who’d disappeared since the military junta took control of the country a couple of years previously.

Every single one of us, had it been a Rangers game and a Rangers player that did what Suarez did, would be lauding it, and rightly so.

 

If it was a Rangers game and a Rangers player and he let it go in, we would be screaming for him to never wear our jersey again, and rightly so.

 

Yes, definitely unsportsmanlike - but you do whatever you can to give your team the best chance of winning.  He did the right (but wrong....) thing

1978

Clive Thomas, the Welsh referee, blew the FT whistle between a Brazil corner being taken and Zico heading it into the net.

 

Would have been the match winner

Finished 1-1

 

 

 

Another more recent was the officiating at the Japan/South Korea finals in 2002.

More especially, helping the hosts South Korea go deep in the competition.

 

A specific being a Spanish goal being ruled out because of the ball going out of play, it very clearly didn't.
