Havertz looked level with one defender, whilst there was another defender on the line from when I saw itGisappointed said:Another VAR mistake today. The bloke down the pub will tell you that you need a defender between the forward and the goal to be onside but this is wrong. You need two, but one is normally the keeper. For Arsenal's winner, Pickford came charging out past all the players in the action. So when the cross came in, there was only one defender between Havertz and the goal. Keeper was not active. OFFSIDE.
Refs got it wrong again.0 -
But not sure they actually reviewed it or drew lines. I suspect they didnt cotton onto the actual law.ForeverAddickted said:

He’s clearly onside by a wide margin which is why there probably wasn’t any lines drawn.
Keeper “not active”?

No more of these wounded statements about how unfair life is

I don’t think they thought for a second that it would be binned but it gave them an opportunity to raise their grievances and hopefully that’ll help them improve it because it’s still very inconsistentChris_from_Sidcup said:

Wolves made to look in line with the two thirds of fans that also want it binned.Chris_from_Sidcup said:

Still think this thread should be VAR you a fan?2

Or, alternatively, the rest of the Premier League clubs look out of touch with the groundswell of fan opinion. But then, when did they ever really give a fuck about the fans - apart from how to monetise them?Chris_from_Sidcup said:

Interesting that only Old Trafford and Anfield don’t have video screens to show VAR replays, only electronic scoreboards. So if they do decide to start showing the review as it’s going on then they’ll have to do something at those two grounds, although no idea where they’d put new screens.0

Rugby does it so much better. Today at Twickenham. Superb referee talks to TV match official but it is his decision. https://www.rugbyworld.com/news/watch-beno-obano-red-card-shock-bath-early-in-premiership-final-1694010

How does anyone challenge that red? I love how they watch it on a big screen too and everyone can hear the conversation and reasoning for the decision.0

How on earth does VAR look at this and decide a yellow was the correct decision? I get he didn't connect with the player, but surely that isn't the point. It's a dangerous two footed tackle and should therefore be a red?

You don't need VAR for that...Chris_from_Sidcup said:How on earth does VAR look at this and decide a yellow was the correct decision? I get he didn't connect with the player, but surely that isn't the point. It's a dangerous two footed tackle and should therefore be a red?3 -
Very true, the ref should've sent him off, but it's more a question of how can any VAR look at that with multiple replays and think 'yeah a yellow will do'SporadicAddick said:

Ridiculous challenge. Your told from a very early age that's not how to challenge for the ball, so why a professional is doing it beggars belief.
From that picture it looks like hes auditioning for the Matrix.0
