Absolutely, sadly.Denied one of the greatest moments in FA Cup history because of a millimetre. Fuck VAR. Is shit like that really what it was brought in for?
If it was, I absolutely hate the way football is going.
Why wasn't he sent OFF ?What's the score with 2 yellows for Onana?
How many more times will I have to say this. Killjoys. Can you imagine the sheer joy those Coventry fans felt when the lad scored that? Only for it to be ruled out by inches, bloody inches. Not like it’s a half a yard or so. Completely killed the game, as you say.Another nail in the coffin for VAR, surely? It has succeeded in completely sucking the joy out of football and there’s a real chance it’ll never come back. Well done all you pundits and journalists out there, through your constant sniping, bringing in this behemoth, that‘s killed the game that we love.

Yellow during the game and yellows in a penalty shootout are separate.Why wasn't he sent OFF ?
This would be an issue even if the distortion was lower. That’s because the VAR still has to choose the reference frame, which is open to both manipulation and simply human error.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.www.bath.ac.uk
