People against VAR who were undoubtedly screaming for some sort of VAR after Lampard’s ghost goal against Germany in 2010

That's goal-line technology, which most people, I think, totally agree with now and the decisions are made instantly. The VAR as seen in the Liverpool v West Brom game is a totally different animal.

Would people be saying the same about VAR if a goal was wrongly given in a promotion final?

Even goal line technology had its teething problems at the start.

I can't remember any problems with goalline technology? Not in this country anyway. It's black and white.

I’m all for goal line technology because it’s black and white and instant, everything VAR controls is mainly opinion and there are so many grey areas, it also takes far too long and kills the flow of the game/atmosphere.


"Falls to Arnold... Arnold! That's it! Thats it! He's sealed it! Grimsby Town are back in the football league!!! Just a minute to go and Nathan Arnold makes it 3-1! Look at the scenes behind the goal! Look at the relief! The agony is finally over!!!"
