Match Thread | FC Copenhagen vs Man City (11/10/22)

[Alan Harper's Tash]

VAR was only supposed to be used for clear and obvious errors, was that clear and obvious?

It checks for handballs in the build up to goals. In the PL, that goal would have stood, but not in the CL.

Clear and obvious is to do with subjective foul decisions.

 

[Trevor Morley's Tache]

Ref spotted Eddie's touch there... Imagine my surprise.

I wouldve been pissed if this was;
- a Haaland goal; or
- a knockout game; or
- this game was not already a guarenteed win

Why if it was a Haaland goal? Does it make a difference which city player scores it?

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

The rule is the player can’t score off a handball if he handles it, no? Rodri didn’t handle it.

In the PL, yes, not in the CL.

Ederson "Manchester United goalkeeper"?

Quality commentating from BT Sport

Lb needed to do more there. Jogging back

 

[Bluesince1979]

Think that was right decision. He gained control with his hand whether he meant it or not
Harder to take because it was such a great goal

 

[Semper aggressus]

Fuck me a little the OTT no? Hahah..

Oh and they won’t win.

Pissed off cos of VAR. Great goal by Rodders and a nice early one to make the game easy, then all fucked up because of the ball landing on Mahrez’s glove when he knew nothing about it. Fucking hate var

 

[deano ou812]

The handball rule should be universal for Europe and domestic leagues,not one rule there and one here and so on ..

Correct
