France v Australia VAR controversy edit
Hey guys! Can anyone help me with writing a section on 'France v Australia VAR controversy' on List of 2018 FIFA World Cup controversies?--Anbans 585 (talk) 18:30, 16 June 2018 (UTC)
Found the solution to this controversy: On the FIFA-section "line-ups" https://resources.fifa.com/image/upload/eng-05-0616-fra-aus-start-pdf-2957950.pdf?cloudid=ueojbqunjiip4n5wrayx you find the footnote "Version2: Change of officials". So it really is official! VAR: Vigliano (ARG), AVAR's: Lopes Martins (POR), Maidana (ARG), Maruffo (USA).
Will please someone mor experienced than me edit this on he match side? Thanks a lot. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rubisco147 (talk • contribs) 17:51, 20 June 2018 (UTC)

Fair Play Points edit
Hello, was wondering about the fair play points. Would Yousef Poulsen's yellow in Australia be an indirect red card? (He earned a yellow card in the previous match, and will miss the one against France). Timeoin (talk) 19:06, 21 June 2018 (UTC) Timeoin (talk) 19:06, 21 June 2018 (UTC)

Peru v Denmark -- Never met before? edit
The claim that Peru and Denmark have not faced each other is not accurate. Peru and Denmark already met at the 1997 U.S. Cup, which resulted in a 2-1 victory for the Danish.--MarshalN20 ✉🕊 14:26, 26 June 2018 (UTC)
- I can only assume that match wasn't sanctioned by FIFA, as the "head-to-heads" document produced by FIFA for this World Cup makes no mention of any previous meetings between the two (see here). – PeeJay 14:39, 26 June 2018 (UTC)
- @PeeJay2K3: Right, but that does not justify the claim that the two teams never met before. I'll make the edit to fix it.--MarshalN20 ✉🕊 14:48, 26 June 2018 (UTC)
- If the match wasn't sanctioned by FIFA, then the teams weren't the same. It doesn't count if it's not a FIFA-sanctioned match. It's essentially a "Denmark Invitational XI v Peru Invitational XI" game, not a proper match. – PeeJay 14:53, 26 June 2018 (UTC)
- The two teams did face each other before. There's no need to get nit-picky about it. FIFA can say whatever it wants, but the records indicate otherwise.--MarshalN20 ✉🕊 15:31, 26 June 2018 (UTC)
