Spain (a) in October


Recommended Posts

The goal was disallowed for "a foul" - make no mistake. That's what UEFA, after clarification from the Referee/VAR, said.

They then changed it to "offside" after the decision was made for a foul.

The goal was not disallowed for offside.

He looks at the monitor to decide if Hendry interferes, thats the match referee's call. He doesnt touch the ball so having determined ge's offside its up to the ref if he did enough to stop the keeper getting it.

And did he interfere? Absolutely not. Stop talking utter nonsense. The ball was fucking rocketed into the net before the keeper had a clue what was going on. Though do forget you have a habit of being contrarian for the sake of it.

People should calm the f**k down.

We want a draw for Norway v Spain. That way we qualify and we can still top the group.

We will get the point we need away to Georgia. Yes they have been chunts in the past but this is a different Scotland team.

Nea worries. We are qualifying just whether it is top or 2nd.

That away win in Norway will be the difference

Seriously though, its offside. Are we all watching this with blue tinted specs on? If that happens at the other end we're all screaming offside. He standing offside and he stops Simon getting to the ball. He's 100% interfering.

Simon didn't even make any attempt to move towards the ball, so this is complete bollocks.

However it's also irrelevant, because the referee didn't give offside. When he walked away from the monitor and made the VAR sign, he then stuck his arm out to the right. That is the sign referees make when they are giving a freekick for a foul. He did not put his arm directly in the air as referees do to signal offside, because he did not give offside. At no point was an offside being considered in the decision to disallow that goal.

Aye,  we have been fortunate to get given that.   Being so close to the keeper whilst being offside is going to be called interfering.

If it's offside why are lines not drawn. Also if it's that, then no referee intervention is needed. They're fucking at it

An image was eventually shown with lines. 

The referee will be sent to the monitor to determine if a player in an offside position that doesn’t score is interfering with play.

Arsehole, and I'm sure I'm not the first to say this.

If VAR has originally chalked off the goal for a foul, how can they then go back and change it to offside? Surely if the Spurs-Liverpool fiasco taught us anything, it was as soon as the decision is made by VAR, they can't go back on it. 

They didnt though. They gave offside.

The keeper not appealing for it makes absolutely hee-haw difference; this isn’t cricket.

Oh aye, Spain are renowned for not kicking up shit when they think they have been wronged right enough. Away you go.
