If the ref was competent and the Lino’s weren’t bottlers, noWould palace 2nd goal have stood without VAR ?

Have a look at it then before commenting.Not seen it
Why didn’t the ref send him off real time ?
If Haaland had lifted that over the keeper to run onto he either scores or more likely the keeper would have brought him down for a penalty and sending off anyway.
Lino has an unobstructed view of it. No way he needs VAR to tell him that was a deliberate goal saving handball by the keeper. He should have flagged for the foul, but as I said earlier, the officials act differently because of VAR.
Not seen it? Fuck off.Not seen it

Just fuck off.Would palace 2nd goal have stood without VAR ?

He had an unobstructed view but from five yards behind where he should have been. I doubt he could see if it was or wasn't inside the box from there.
The linesman was in no position, literally or figuratively, to help the referee.
Apart from that, this is all on VAR.

He can absolutely see the keeper twatted it, he can’t be excused for not keeping up with play. There is no excuse for the ref not being told to see the monitor. It looked like he was on his way & then stopped & got a drink off a player. I’ve never in my life seen a ref do that.
Not just the occasion - but the outcome.I said it in the match thread, it was a classic example of refereeing the occasion rather than refereeing the game. We can't "ruin" the FA Cup final by sending off the goalkeeper early. Reminds me of that time that De Jong got away with a karate kick in the World Cup final for the same reason.
But if he can't see it's outside the box, he can't flag for a ball twatting.
I am not excusing him for not being up with play, though, which is why I said he wasn't in any position to help.
But yes, if VAR can't get this right, you have to ask what is the actual point.
On the other hand, you just know everyone will forget about this after a day or so because everyone got the result they wanted and the club won't make a fuss. If this was Liverpool, there would be hell to pay and they would be guaranteed enough favourable decisions to win the league next year.
