What sense does it make for VAR to make Paul Tierney go to the monitor over a play he had a clear view of? It wasn’t a hidden handball or a foul behind the play. He saw it, didn’t make the call, but is forced to watch it in slow motion until he awards a pk. Done with the premier league until they get rid of VAR for everything but offsides.
Tell me you dont understand the rules without telling me you dont understand the rules. VAR intervenes if there is a plausible belief that the referee made the incorrect call. Hojlund fouled him in the box, and he didn’t see/call it. VAR told him to look at it again and confirm that Hojlund had not fouled Rodri in the box. Tierney watched it back, saw that it WAS, in fact, a foul and gave the pen. It was a very soft pen and there was an argument that Rodri went down too easy but it was a foul nonetheless, it was in the box, it’s a pen…
