Why does Germany always have ugly ass kits?

So that you make a post about them
It could be that your purpose in life is to serve as a warning to others. Explains why I come with a warning label. Life is short, drink jager with red bull.

Watching with no sound. Is the explanation that the German player wins the ball first before the boot hits the head? There was clearly more than enough contact for a foul, so I'm not sure what else the explanation could be...
That can't be an explanation. Having you foot at head height is dangerous play so any contact is a foul.

the fourth alternative kits were these

It's complicated. He played the ball first and PIADM just barely registers at the professional level.
I've got a foul. Ball or not you just cannot let a player kick another in the head.
Mewonders if the female referee on the GER/ECU pitch is a fur trader. Let's see how she does.
Don't miss that old German coach always going digging into his nose for a snack.
Gig ‘Em Baby!

Exactly dangerous play is rarely called at this level, but a high boot that makes contact with an opponents head even minimal is rarely a no call.
Rudiger looks weird without the batman mask

Based on your experience, it's hard to blame the ref there if their view was blocked, right?
They would expect VAR to pick up the contact if there is some contact. Or maybe not?

The only thing worse than being talked about is not being talked about
And I'm barely paying attention, but didn't the ball go out of play after that incident and then they scored on the throw-in? If so, I think the stoppage made it unreviewable, right?tysker said:Mathguy64 said:AustinScubaAg said:Vessel said:

The ball stayed live in play.

No, the high boot came right after the throw in and led directly to the goal.
I'm just saying from the German perspective, I think there is a case of "we won the ball and the Ecuadorian player's head came in and hit the foot after it's been controlled." But I do understand it's probably a foul by the letter of the law.
Ah the old he won the ball so no foul argument.

Did she see the contact but say he played the ball first? If so, it's defensible in some weird way.
Did she not see and VAR say it's after the playing of the ball?
Do maybe they have an angle that actually shows no contact? Thats not reality because you can see the foot hit the head.
Who knows. I think it's a miss by her and a second miss by the VAR to have her look again.
Thanks yeah, I see it now.
I dont even think it should matter if he made contact, you can't play the ball with your foot that high in a crowd.
This should be called all the way back to the first foul where Ecuador got fouled
This one is coming out for the foul early.
How does she even miss that live
I'm going to call that what it was. A make up call for the first one. It's the tiniest of touches.
Agreed but when you are sprinting it doesn't take a hard foul to trip you eitherMathguy64 said:

Seeing yellow all over the place!!!

I don't think that gets called if the high kick is called.

probably. Two boarder line calls and quite frankly clasic Havertz which is why even when deserved he rarely gets that call.
Wow, that should have been in on goal if Havertz plays a better lead pass...
Vamos Quito
I look at as more that they did not want both questionable calls going Germany's way and resulting in both their scores.
Gig ‘Em Baby!
Ecuador's coach looks like he should be hanging out with Skinny Pete and Badger
