The Master Posted June 22 Share Posted June 22 Just now, rainbowrising said: VAR overall in this tournament has been how it should be. Fairly quick assessment, ref informed, decision awarded, on with the game. None of this 5 minutes of VAR then another extended time calling the Ref over. Except for yesterday when the English referees got their hands on it. Although the narrative from the media around that has been ridiculous because they’re focusing too much on how quickly other offsides have been determined. Last night was always going to take longer because it was a subjective decision. The focus instead should be on why it took so long to decide if there was interference. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless the attacking player has adopted an anticipatory volleyball block or similar, the correct decision in that sporting contest should be a goal regardless of whether it rebounded off their arm, their forehead or their left bollock in the process. No sporting advantage was gained - so no penalty should occur. That rules were arbitrarily set before - and will be arbitrarily changed again soon enough - to try and turn handball into an objective decision is of absolutely no concern to me. I wondered why you were taking ages to type - now I realise - convoluted pish to justify your position. You never change. When wrong just double down.

Savage Henry Posted June 22 Share Posted June 22 Oof. If ever there was an orange card, that was it. I’m not sure this game is finishing 11 vs 11. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Master Posted June 22 Share Posted June 22 Not being able to score with your arm at all is actually one of the better handball-related rule changes. It’a clear and unambiguous, with the only scope for contention being the marginal “was it actually the arm?” decisions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richey Edwards Posted June 22 Share Posted June 22 You shouldn't be allowed to score with any body part that isn't your feet IMO. And I include headers in that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
