VAR yet again.

The penalty for Crystal Palace the other day. I mean, it strikes a defenders arm (maybe) as he is running alongside the attacker because his arm is in an "unnatural position" which was caused by his running action. Penalty given.

It is beyond bizarre that effectively a goal is given for something as inoculous as that.

Of course it didn't stop there. The keeper was penalised for being 2 inches off his line as he saved the penalty. Had he saved the retake he would  have been penalised because once again the movement of launching himself towards the ball meant he was an inch off his line. I guess from now on now he will have to start slightly behind the line.

Defenders will have to take the field with their arms strapped up just in case a flailing arm brushes the ball in the area.

Total madness and its ruining the game.
