FA Cup Semi Final | Coventry City v United

[simon23]

It’s an absolute wank rule. If a keeper has a yellow in the game it should be relevant for the pens or it gives the keeper a free hit to cheat in the pens

even if that happened it would be an immediate sub and a new keeper would be brought on for an outfield player......no real advantage at all.

What they could do to stop the gamesmanship (if you want it stopped)..is create an area to the side of the pitch (off the pitch) where the keeper has to stand until the player taking the penalty is ready.

However that would be shit so hope it stays as it is

Sure look at last years final. Casimero should have got a straight red yet the ref gave them a free kick!..then the Grealish penalty. There were other things but can’t be arsed with the favouritism they get anymore. It’s a joke.

I struggle to be sympathetic when utd get the odd poor decision,but that pen given against them was extremely harsh,the grealish pen in the final was an even worse decision.
The simple answer is ,Var,the way it's run,and the clowns operating it at times,is utter shite.

How the Fuck does that prove he is offside?

At the other end it is not ruled out.

Just heard about the keeper too and his bookings!

Different rules so he doesn't miss the Cup Final.

Thay are the jammiest team by a fucking mile and are still shit, been like this for 10 years.
Without the luck they would have been relegated during this period without a doubt.

Don’t talk shite. It was offside. Other end it’s offside. If they wanted them though, Coventry wouldn’t have been given a pen in the dying minutes.

As for jammy, what have they won in that decade? They’re shit.

That is an actual photo (though slightly distorted by someone taking a photo of their TV) of the VAR decision line.

As I said in the VAR thread, he was at most an inch offside via that assessment, if they actually selected the correct frame for reference. Even that is probably in the margin of error for the system.

That is not in line with the spirit of the offside rule or really what any reasonable football fan wants to see, even if it sometimes benefits their own club.

Those decisions are why people see VAR as detracting from the enjoyment of watching football.

There is always an error as the frame rate of the cameras is not real time. It can be as much as several inches depending on how fast players are moving and how hard the ball is struck

Having to beat a championship team on pens after being 3-0 up.

Fuckin ballbouncingly hilarious.

 

[remember arthur mann]

Yellow during the game and yellows in a penalty shootout are separate.

I new off the cuff law they've made up.

 

[Blue Til Death]

We are Manchester United. We are much more than this.

Fuck off Fernandes you rat faced deluded ****

 

[Stoned Rose]

Beyond bent. Even by these cunts’ standards.

The romance of the cup will be well and truly turning in it’s grave.

 

[ysmsa]

Without VAR also, United were going to get that offside decision.

Don't think so as the goal was given by the on pitch officials.

The Var Manipulation of the picture stills and "drawn" lines overturned it.

Thinking about it, it is so open to abuse, how the fuck do we allow this bollocks?

Its offside if you dont put the line in the right place and/or dont measure from the end of the defenders foot but the middle instead
