Poor decision but just the regular type of howler that happens maybe twice a weekend if we're honest.
I also felt the same. The contact, albeit completely minimal, justified VAR in confirming his decisionI think if the ref waved play on VAR would have said “not enough contact to go down” but as the ref gave it and there was contact then VAR were never going to overturn it.
This is the thing isnt it, VAR was meant to stamp this stuff out.In real time it was a poor but understandable call. The fact that VAR didn’t correct it was certainly one of the most obviously wrong VAR calls I’ve ever seen.
Really? He just ignored Onana cleaning out another of their CBs a few minutes before. Perhaps that played on his mind.Lets be honest, ref wanted to give wolves any semi-acceptable pen decision to make up for the game at OT and possibly shut the wolves manager up for good.
I can't think of many worse than the Dalot sending off in my lifetime. Absolutely astonishing decision.Shit decision but nowhere near the worst of all time. Come on now.
I'm embarrassed to confess that I've spent time watching this barbaric sport.
Yellow card only.
That was absolutely bonkers, yeahI can't think of many worse than the Dalot sending off in my lifetime. Absolutely astonishing decision.
Edit: oh the phantom Roy Carroll spurs goal was the worst of all time in our favour, maybe the worst I've ever seen given against us was Vardy's dive in the Leicester 4-2 win against us
As to the worst of all time for any club there's been plenty of horrendous decisions that didn't involve Manchester United.
Not when they've been told to send the ref to the monitor when the contact is minimal, it isn't.I also felt the same. The contact, albeit completely minimal, justified VAR in confirming his decision
Just tried to explain it from their POVNot when they've been told to send the ref to the monitor when the contact is minimal, it isn't.

Yes it was a clear and obvious error.It was soft, but can see why VAR gave it. On replay it wasn't a clear and obvious error from the ref
And I was pointing out it was the wrong thing to do and against the advice of Howard Webb.Just tried to explain it from their POV
The crazy thing is that it was a classic 'archer's bow' shape that Neto throws. There was a great study years ago that identified that body shape as characteristic of a dive but that all seems to have been ignored since the move to VAR in favour of trying to interpret minimal contact in slow-mo ... link to details of study here if anyone is interested How to recognise a dive ... Please could someone also forward on to Paul Tierney!It's not even Tierney's worst decision this week.
Lost for words, don’t remember having seen this before. Could so easily have broken his neck.I'm embarrassed to confess that I've spent time watching this barbaric sport.
The Liverpool one at Spurs wasnt a bad decision it was just miscommunication between the ref and VAR who thougnt the onfield decision was goal when the onfield decision was actually offside, Garnacho's disallowed goal against Arsenal was a worse decision.If we take VAR into account, that would be the goal Liverpool had disallowed at Spurs this season. That was a farce.
Without VAR.... Plenty to choose from. Hand of God, Henry vs Ireland, Pique vs Chelsea (the ball magically stopped midair without him handling it).
Yeah I am aware what happened but the outcome was farcical. Why couldnt they have stopped play after they realized what they had done ?The Liverpool one at Spurs wasnt a bad decision it was just miscommunication between the ref and VAR who thougnt the onfield decision was goal when the onfield decision was actually offside, Garnacho's disallowed goal against Arsenal was a worse decision.
That happen in the Premier League as well in a match between Burnley and Bournemouth when Bouremouth equalized but VAR ruled the goal out and awarded a penalty to Burnley.In Italy, I have seen a team, I think Lazio, having a goal disallowed because VAR awarded a penalty to the opposing team for an incident a minute earlier. So 2:0 became 1:1.
100%. That was disturbing to watch, no idea how there could be any chance of allowing it to happen.That was GBH, player should have been banned for a year minimum.
