[mancityvstoke]

Poznan at wembley, fire drill at the end. Friendly banter outside.

Can't wait.

 

[stan bowles]

When was the last time the final had the same teams in it for 2 years in a row ?

 

[Gordyola]

The magic of the FA Cup ruined by the ridiculous criteria of ruling someone offside my mm using flawed technology If the human eye can’t see it stick to on field decision But hey ho we are ruled by idiots

 

[Shuffs]

Coventry have been done there without a doubt.

No way near offside.

So these cunts have just had the ultimate rub of the green(I'll call it cheating) against a mid table championship side and are celebrating like they've just won the treble. Embarrassing set of wankers! In a minute,they'll calm down and the realisation will kick in that they're playing us next.. the greatest team in the world!

Not sure why you've nailed your flag to the mast with this for some reason.

“The frame-rate and resolution of the cameras used in VAR sometimes does not keep pace with the fast movements, meaning that sometimes the player or the ball is blurred.

“So, the viewer has to use their own judgement to extrapolate where the players were at the moment the ball was kicked, which affects whether it is offside or not.

“My research found that the ball was kicked 132 milliseconds earlier than the participants perceived, which doesn’t sound like much, but in a fast-paced game it could be long enough for the players to be in a different location and therefore could potentially change the outcomes of offside.

“This goes to show that whilst VAR is useful to spot obvious errors, it shouldn’t be relied upon completely to make referee decisions.”

Motion capture reveals why VAR in football struggles with offside decisions

New research shows why VAR isn't always accurate enough to judge offside moments.

What's the score with 2 yellows for Onana?

Can't wait for the semi automatic offside to come into the game as this line drawing looks dodgy as fuck.

The lines looked like it was over his foot.

Makes you wonder why VAR didn't over rule the penalty, would have never got to that point then?

 

[SWPISHOME]

Fucking Munich cunts hiding behind the officials every fucking time

Absolutely no need for that comment. You're fucking embarrassing coming out with something like that.

Idiot.

Craig Burley laying into the jammy rags on ESPN.
- Ten Haag out of his depth.
- What’s the more competitive final? Us vs Cov or the rags? It’s hard to say.

Fucking Munich cunts hiding behind the officials every fucking time

Cunts yes but no need for the Munich reference. That’s small time and out of order from you there.

 

[BlueNirvana]

if i was scruffy jim i would sack ten bob tonight

 

[Bluemoonadam]

I'm angry, Hope we tear them apart.

 

[Gordyola]

Playing glory glory Man Utd & it’s empty lol

Isn’t it Glory Glory Spuds song stolen like everything else by the Trafford lot

 

[ShedDweller]

Where was VAR when Onana was off his line for the 2nd to last Cov penalty? That should have been retaken

 

[Nellies left peg]

What's the score with 2 yellows for Onana?

Same as Martinez for Villa the other night , absurdly it doesn’t count after extra time.

 

[Jesus2020]

Got to feel for the Coventry fans who aren't used to VAR, celebrating a last min winner against the mighty Man Utd in a semi final at wembley to take them to a final against the best team in the world. Those seconds, minutes would have been the best feeling - what football is all about - akin to the Aguero winner. Only for some **** sat behind a desk to take all that joy from you based on a centimetre that is subjective to interpretation.

 

[Lupo]

Dear City: please please please please fucking destroy the spawny wankers in the final. Love Wolves xx

 

[don84]

I knew as soon as Torp scored it would be offside.

You mean you knew right away that VAR would make it an offside, correct?

 

[svennis pennis]

Nothing to see here apart from them drawing the blue line over the rag players foot.
