I don't think you can be certain so why the fuck did VAR intervene? It's just a joke especially after the handball joke
If it's given as a penalty by the ref then VAR has to intervene.
absolutely conned...the foul was the body check which was on the line.
Only if its a clear and obvious mistake. It's not clear and obvious at all when that STOPS being a foul. So why the fuck is VAR so certain about it?
Yes, but to overturn that...isn't the standard still clear and obvious?
there was no contact with his leg. The fucking foul was the body check which was absolutely on the line.
Unless I'm stupid. You don't stop the clip, when contact is first made. You stop the clip when the foul ends. They kept stopping and reviewing the first contact and glossing over the fact that the foul continued into the box.
I mean they didn't even ask the ref to view it and say when HE the ONFIELD OFFICIAL believes the foul was committed. They just told him. It's so fucking inconsistent.
I thought it was a pen but the call from VAR was that it was outside - clear and obvious doesn't come into it, in this case.
Agreed.
No, if it's a penalty given by the ref, I thought (could be wrong) that it is automatically checked, as every goal is.
They gave a dodgy pen and then proceeded to double down and screw them again.
I've literally seen the pen incident about 6 times now and I absolutely cannot believe VAR didn't see the there was no contact with leg and the actual contact was the body check. Bournemouth will get an apology but if that was us I'd be absolutely fuming.
11 in reality, despite today's sh!tfesr.
Yeah it’s obvious. They just didn’t want to give it.
You got a lot of agrees but surely the place the foul first occurs is correct. That’s the first foul and what would be given. It’s like when someone is fouled but there was an earlier offside. Tough luck.
