Bad form from Christian but I’d like to think he came to his senses and then decided he needed to do the sportsman thing and shake hands, leave it in the field. The ref is also humans and showed his immaturity in his refusal. That’s also bad form, and from someone who is supposed to be above the fray.

Oh man I missed the fact that the referee didn’t shake his hand. Wow. That’s unbelievable. I agree with everything you said. Of course the internet has been ablaze with fire Greg takes essentially all tournament long, but like you I wanted to wait until the group stage was complete. My goodness seeing him but the two fingers up for 1-1 was such a capitulation that it defies belief. He needs to go. Right now.

To be fair, Pulisic was baiting the ref right before the handshake clip to go and celebrate with Uruguay. Obviously the ref refused to join Uruguay celebrations lol
