More bizarre decisions from the officials!
As Chiles said. Cameroon will probably get a sloppy goal and win the game.

Has there ever been such a bad start by the officials?
What after Blatter's world cup alleged bribery an corruption re 2022, things are not good for FIFA

I wondered how it was possible that Howard Webb, who has been terrible for the past couple of years, got selected to referee at the World Cup, but after these first 2 games I can see why - he's excellent in comparison!

The one ref from each country rule should be dropped. The referees from Uzbekisan and Bahrain and Tahiti, to name just 3 surely can't be better than a 3rd/4th/5th choice from England/Italy/Germany/Spain. You want the best refs at the World Cup, not one from every country.

At least Mexico still got the result they deserved. Looked a decent enough side going forwards - they may push Croatia for the second qualifying spot from Group A.
Cameroon - not so much. A few very ordinary players in their ranks - a fear a second straight pointless World Cup appearance awaits them.......

With who they've got to play, that looks barely evitable. Pretty unambitious performance, too. Hopefully (or is it inevitably?) Brasil will crush Mexico.

I bet I put a massive jinx on him, but Irmatov (the Uzbek) was one of the best refs at the last World Cup. If it was based on performances and not politics he should have reffed the final in 2010.
