Is still better than missing obvious things or the obvious wrong decisions without VAR.
Just look at PL, it's a shit show in refereeing.
How? Buli is way faster this season. Exact same situation on the Ajax goal happened in the Freiburg match on Saturday. Offside is the correct decision.
No it's not. The VAR needs a lot of work before it will be acceptable to me. As it is now it only causes even more discussion than without it.
This was a clear Ajax goal and a mistake by Courtois imo.
You know in the stadium and at home what's going on. Go to a game and you know what I mean. My father needs to phone me to know what's going on. Also a lot of times you don't even know at home what the ref is seeing.
It was offside, but the kind of offside that is nearly impossible to call in real time.
The Ajax fans didn't sound like they knew what was going on. I agree they need a way for the refs to speak (like in the NFL) and maybe also show the replay on the big screens.
How? He was offside and "interfering" with Courtois. I do agree that it was a very weak call, but that's what VAR gives you...

Offside and interference with the goalkeeper, good call from the ref.

Courtois wasn't even protesting the goal as he knew it was his own fault.
And I've been confronted with the VAR this whole season in the Dutch Eredivisie and it sucks, I'd rather have the ref making mistakes than this.
What kind of metric is that? Only check goals after massive protest?
Yea, there's not enough hand gestures to properly explain that stuff lol.
That's not a measure of anything. Him being upset for a mistake he did doesn't make the play valid.
Who would've thought Real Madrid could still rob teams even with VAR? But here we are
And if it was rescinded by the VAR everyone in here would've had a laugh and say how great it is that VAR exists.
No, but it does say something when actually no one from Madrid was protesting the goal imo.
I think it would be better if a team can ask for a VAR review let's say twice per half or something. It interferes a game too much now and there's also a difference on what gets reviewed and what not between games and between the different people behind the VAR. (For example a foul tackle which in game A is reviewed and the player gets a red card while in game B the same kind of tackle does not get reviewed and the player scores the winner)
It causes even more discussion than before so what's the point?
both teams love giving the ball away in their half.
it was finally punished
How would they check the offside position in an incredibly fast moving situation. Do you want players to protest every decision? Because that's what you would get with your logic.
So you would rather have 4 guaranteed breaks per game (who would let their challenge go to waste) with the possibility of using the challenge to waste time + the possibility of a horrible referee mistake going unnoticed because a team used up all of their challenges?
There is a difference in some minute details between teams because the technology is new and the people working it are inexperienced. The cases in which a check or a following review can be done are narrowly defined by IFAB and pretty strictly followed after the inital difficulties I mentioned above.
lol Man City is gonna pork the living fucknuts out of Herne West next week
Most teams already do, especially a team like Madrid. When there is the slightest doubt of offside or a foul or whatever, teams protest. Also, this case of offside wasn't noticeable without the camera right? It used to be a rule that when in doubt about offside, the attacking team should get the benefit. I prefer that rule over this tbh.
It was a suggestion, all I know is that in it's current form most people who visit games are not a fan and there's weekly discussions on VAR decisions in the papers and on footy talkshows over here, which says to me that it's not working as it should. The whole idea was to make football more fair and reduce discussions on ref decisions, right?
Solari was going to sub out Vinicius but after that play he changed his mind and sat Bale instead.
