MOSCOW — Look at the best quotes from the third day of the World Cup on Saturday, which saw Argentina held by Iceland and VAR help France past Australia:
"I did some homework because I knew this was a situation that could come up. It was a long shot but it happened." -- Iceland goalkeeper Hannes Halldorsson on his penalty save from Lionel Messi
"Messi misses a penalty and somehow, somewhere, I think Ronaldo may be winking." — Former England striker Gary Lineker on Twitter
"When the referee went to see the video, for me it was because there was a penalty. I was already thinking about how I would take it." — Antoine Griezmann after he was awarded a historic, but controversial, penalty by VAR.
"I hoped that maybe one time there would be a very honest referee, and in that moment, that he wouldn’t go to the video screen." — Australia coach Bert van Marwijk wasn’t so impressed by the decision
"Yesterday we saw a true World Cup match, the essense of the World Cup. It was a great match, a lot of fun to watch. It was two great teams and a lot a drama. It was fantastic to watch. That was the World Cup at its purest." — Germany coach Joachim Loew chimes in on Friday’s thrilling 3-3 draw between Spain and Portugal. — AFP
