Switzerland midfielder Djibril Sou is impressed with the unprecedented amount of playing time added to the World Cup 2022 matches.
"I watched the game between Spain and Costa Rica. I don't think there should have been eight minutes of stoppage time. I think this is stupidity. The referee must feel the situation on the field. When the score is 6-0, there is no need to add another eight minutes. This also applies to respect for the opponent.
The longer the games last, the more the body is strained. If you're going to play 100-105 minutes every time, I wonder how many injuries there will be," the midfielder was quoted as saying by Goal.
