It really looked handball

62

VAR is fucking us today. This is so inevitable at this stage. FFS.

63

FFS another appalling decision

64

No it really wasnt

65

Boufal being pulled and rotated as he moves towards the ball.

Probably wouldn’t have hit his arm if he wasn’t being held and turned.

The other player pulled him, if he hadn’t he wouldn’t have handled it…

I love MCarthy at the moment

Saved

Macca having a worldy

Absolutely. He was clearly yanked back as he tried to break, the toon player pulling him back caused his shoulder to drop. Foul on Boufal.

Defo red and defo penalty, they were both our own faults totally.

72

McCarthy is seriously and I mean this having the game of his career, fucking 3 Worldies here.

Tbf, we’ve had a pretty good run with VAR this year

We’ve survived a VAR nightmare this half, let’s hope that that will gee them up for the second half…

76

I would argue it’s already evened itself out.

77

And that’s where VAR can improve. Looking at the whole of the situation, not just point of impact, like when Boufal was pulled around

Fair

79

Fuck that, be honest, no natural movement did that and how can a shoulder push forward like that when being pushed? It can’t, he did it did thinking he could get away, instinctive but stupid.

80

He got pulled, it made him twist and drop his shoulder into the ball, I maintain if he wasn’t being pulled his shoulder would have dropped nor his arm raise…

81

On a plus note.
That Irish Red Ale is superb. Almost London Pride ish.
