There is no way of fixing it enough. The cluster fuck and outrage at bad decisions has never been this bad.

How long have you been watching football? If you want to see a cluster fuck of bad decisions, check out the lower leagues or historical games.

You are being deliberately hyperbolic.

I'm guessing you never saw Nigel De Jong kicking Xabi Alonso square in the chest during the 2010 World Cup final?

That happened after 28 minutes, and the Netherlands ended up coming within 5 minutes of taking the match to penalties. The referee's failure to show a red card could easily have cost Spain victory.
