    Aye. Timings a big issue with this WC for us in Europe.

    That was my point

    I'm not sure about the announcements, honestly. Might help to have the refs mic'd up like in rugby so we can hear them talking the decision over with the VAR but I'm not sure what this achieves, other than maybe accessibility (blind/visually impaired fans).

    Well the rugby thing only works for people watching on TV whereas the announcements are for people at the game too

    I think at rugby you can buy a set of headphones that gives you access to the ref's mic, though I don't know how widespread that is.

    Honestly even if it's just for TV, it would help to know what the decision making process is.

    England 1-0 at HT vs Haiti. Pel. Had to be retaken after the first one was saved but the ‘keeper was off her lane.
