The Premier League's Independent Key Match Incidents Panel has ruled the referee and the VAR were correct to award Newcastle United's winning goal against Arsenal.
The overreaction to that goal is hilarious. I assume everyone accepts they couldn’t do anything about the ball over the line or offside because of the angles they had so the whole drama is about the challenge??
Yeah, it’s not the first time they’ve missed a questionable challenge. Things like that challenge will always get through because it really is subjective
I think we should move VAR to only things that are not subjective so hand ball and offsides.
I think they should be able to review things that happen off ball like the Bruno elbo just because the referee might not have been watching.
We do that and say soccer is meant to be judged in the moment. A push or foul can’t be judged accurately in slow motion. I don’t think diving can even be judged accurately. Most dives are bordering the players attempt to evade a bad challenge.
The thing from an Arsenal point of view for the offside is that we had a goal ruled out for offside against Brighton in a similar situation. They were unable to draw the line so they overruled the decision to award the goal, but didn’t here.
