PB1994 Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 Correct. They only check "important" decisions - goals, penalties and red cards. So a player can dive and win a free kick and it wouldn't be checked even if his team then scored directly from that free kick. Or in your example if a goal was then scored from the resultant corner. After a "big" team get done by that, they will lobby to get every decision checked by VAR just in case a incorrectly awarded throw in on whatever leads to a goal. Those of us who have been against VAR from the start saw these issues coming but it gives me no real pleasure to be proved right.If the ball had went out for a corner, for example, in the game and wolves then scored from the corner the goal would stand. Once play has restarted after the ball has gone out of play/or the ref has given a foul VAR can’t go back to change any decisions from before the game was restarted. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct but again, it is nothing to do with VAR. The handball rule itself only applies if it leads directly to a goal; no goal and that wouldn't have been considered handball. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Connolly Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 That decision to rest Rashford and save him for the weekend worked well. If Kevin Friend decided he needed to tell Pereira to get up and stop feigning injury, why didn't he book him? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twinkle Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 Surprised people are moaning at the var decision for handball. Should be talking about the fact Jimenez has nearly broke Mcguires ankle in the tackle 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a rule brought in specifically for VARball though - those handballs are never being spotted or awarded in normal football. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salvo Montalbano Posted January 16, 2020 Share Posted January 16, 2020 I think this is the first time I've come across this commentator, but I already really, really hate him. I'm a bit surprised at BT actually in that they usually take the FA Cup (and any Man Utd game) very seriously but last night it's as if it was a chore. Paul Dempsey is more known as a presenter and boxing commentator than a football commentator, they had Paul Scholes and Paul Ince (groan) as pundits and they were pitch-side rather than in a studio, etc. Seemed a bit BBC Alba compared to the usual BT output. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure the only reason I know he said that is because of Hugh Dennis in early Mock the Week episodes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest DAVIDB69 Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 With Leicester reserves scoring early it doesn’t look the most appealing of remaining Saturday and Sunday TV games .Southampton v Tottenham should have been a tv fixture, rather than Man City at home to lower league and the Liverpool youth team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
