Yes, no one can truly celebrate a goal anymore and yes they still make mistakes and yes it's massively slowed the game down but if you ignore all that it's really made football so so much better. I remember pre VAR at a match thinking...the decisions better be accurate today.

Point proven in our game

I don’t think a VAR recommendation that the ref goes to the screen has ever gone against VAR. He showed balls there.

He did, but the whole thing ruined the celebration for us. It's garbage.

I went bonkers in my living room. Patio open. Next doors are rags and I had 2 minutes of pure pain waiting for that decision lol

He didn’t go against the VAR. He’d disallowed it. It was the VAR who recommended he gives it.

Are you sure? I thought the VAR pulled it back, reviewed it then gave it up to the ref.

@LangleyBlue1970 and me think the same that it was the other way around. The fact that as fans we don't know what actually happened only adds to the evidence to get rid.
