When VAR was first brought in we were told that it was there to correct really bad and glaring wrong decisions, last night the two penalties, especially the second one, were both wrong decisions. What we have at the moment is a tool to reinforce them wrong decisions by the referee. So the question is why have it at all if they are not going to overturn these wrong decisions, we might as well bin it and go back to way was before.
 
Even the supreme being at Bing AI says it wasn't a pen.

Q: Why didn't VAR overturn the penalty for the Jota dive?

A:
I assume you are asking about the controversial penalty awarded to Liverpool in their match against Newcastle. According to former Premier League referee Mike Dean, the VAR decided not to overturn the penalty because it was not a clear and obvious error by the on-field referee, Anthony Taylor 1.

Diogo Jota, who was clean through on goal, skipped past Martin Dubravka, took a couple of strides and then went down in the box, seemingly unimpeded. The decision was heavily criticized by some, including former Chelsea defender John Terry, who called it a ‘shocking dive’ on Twitter 2.

I hope this helps clarify your question. Let me know if you have any other questions!

I mean what’s it likely to say - Atwell will confirm there was ‘contact’ - even though we all know it was a feather brush - and so there’s nothing he can do under Webbs’s guidelines as it was given on pitch. It would take an extremely strong ref to overrule their guidelines and say ‘it’s bullshit’ and Atwell is definitely not a strong ref..

The issue, as it often is, lies with Webb and his ridiculous guidelines that other refs hate as they’re incomprehensible.

The guy is as popular as a phall shart in a submarine with this fellow refs and the sooner he is gone the better.
 
Newcastle had a goal disallowed for offside, all i saw just after was a quick flash of lines which to me did not look right?? If is me or did anybody see it?
