>>154611411>Extend your arm to prevent the goalkeeper from reaching the ball>That's not a foul REEEEEEE
>>154611411Look, I fucking hate Arsenal, but that was a pretty clear foul.
Clear foul but if you're anal about every corner kick you could find a foul in every single one. Ie only a foul when you need the riggj
>>154611411>NOOOOOOOOO YOU CAN'T CALL AN OBVIOUS FOUL AND CALL THE CORRECT PLAY. YOU NEED TO GIFT US A TIE WITH A BAD CALL
>>154611570Brother not every corner kick are two dudes jumping on the goalie and hindering his ability to move
>>154611442>>154611583Don’t care. Kill refs. Behead refs. Roundhouse kick a refs into the concrete. Slam dunk a ref baby into the trashcan. Crucify filthy refs. Defecate in a ref’s food. Launch refs into the sun. Stir fry refs in a wok. Toss refs into active volcanoes. Urinate into a ref’s gas tank. Judo throw refs into a woodchipper. Twist refs heads off. Report refs to the IRS. Karate chop a ref in half. Curb stomp pregnant refs. Trap refs in quicksand. Crush refs in the trash compactor. Liquefy refs in a vat of acid. Eat refs . Dissect refs. Exterminate refs in the gas chamber. Stomp ref skulls with steel toed boots. Cremate refs in the oven. Lobotomize refs. Mandatory abortions for refs Grind ref fetuses in the garbage disposal. Drown Muntant Traitors in fried chicken grease. Vaporize ref scum with a ray gun. Kick old refs down the stairs. Feed refs to alligators. Slice refs with a katana. I hate refs.
var is the best thing ever to happen to football
the bloke had his arm on rayas neck
>>154611624kinky
>>154611411You mean completely saves your sport. Look at how the historically cheating pieces of shit like Italy can't cheat anymore. Less flopping and isn't a joke anymore like NBA
Why do euros love cheating so much?
>>154611648They won the euros with var in place and the other historically cheats (Spain, Argentina) did so as well
>>154611718Based Argentina cheats so hard that they won Euros even with VAR and UEFA officials
>>154611411>pre-VAR50/50 decision must be made by the ref>after VAR50/50 decision must be made by the ref but in slow-motion and it will eat up 5 mins every time. Controversy remains
Can anyone explain why soccerfags do video review so badly? Genuinely some mindboggling decisions come out of it. Why is it so complicated?
>>154611920because it's incredibly rigged
>>154611920because the rules are very ambiguous. To be fair the NFL has some retarded rules too like "making a football move" or whatever they call it
>>154611570This. And it's so infuriating watching the refs stopping the game to warn the players about grabbing on corner or free kicks just to completely ignore them afterwards.
>>154612429Not just ambigious but some rules are simply disregarded and the actual refereeing is expected to be contradictory to the rulebook. In addition the rules can be totally different in different leagues despite technically both using the same rulebook.
>>154611570>>154612491it reminds me of how corrupt governments operate
>>154612519there's really no way to have fully objective rules. Imagine if every time your hand touches the ball, it's a foul. Strikers can EASILY target your hands from close range and get cheap pens. And imagine if every contact with another player is a foul
I prefer a fluent match with an overlooked foul here and there over a room of nerds pixel hunting for contact for 10 minutes in slow motion from 4 different angles
>>154611920what was the last big var blunder? i legit can't remember
>>154612548it wouldn't be hard to automatically process the video for it and start penalizing everyone who does it but it would apparently be a big culture shift
weird how Arseanal are allowed do it but nobody else
>>154611800this
>>154612581Discarding West Hams goal.
>>154612571also this>hmm how do we get the result we want from this moment or this match>VAR>oops we don't see in slow motion what we thought we saw during live action>let's spend 5 more minutes looking for some other infraction that we didn't notice 30+ second before the infraction we're reviewingvoila, riggi
>>154612581The "good process" disallowed goal for Liverpool, now that was a shitshow
>>154612548>Strikers can EASILY target your hands from close range and get cheap pensI keep hearing this argument. These absolute cunts can't even kick the ball inside a 7x2m rectangle most of the time, but somehow they have the accuracy to hit the hands of another player?If the shot was on target and it hits the defender's hand, it's a penalty. If it wasn't a shot on target, it's a free kick. No subjective bullshit.>"b-but le natural position of the hand"Fuck off. Only the keeper can play the ball with his hands and only inside the box.
>>154611411>>completely kills your sportBets
>>154612724>If the shot was on target and it hits the defender's hand, it's a penaltywhat if the hand blocked a pass, not a shot? What if the hand was 1m from the ball when the shot was taken and it's impossible to judge if it was on target or not?
>>154612715>LiVARpool got fuckedoh no, anyway
>>154611665Dont make me review your three stars, bro
>>154612762>what if the hand blocked a pass, not a shot?Penalty>What if the hand was 1m from the ball when the shot was taken and it's impossible to judge if it was on target or not?No such cases. If they have the technology to call offside by millimeters, they can calculate the trajectory of the ball with that little data.
>>154613068*Punches Higuain*Dont make me review your four stars, bro
Big Strong American here, you need a complete overhaul of how penalties and the box works. youll have defenders legit hockey check a guy and there's not even a whistle because they would have to award a penalty, and then retarded shit like >>154613348 celebrates when a guy blasts a cross into a guys hand barely inside the box and free penalty 1-0 gg.
>>154611442How come VAR didn't review Rive bearhugging the West Ham player?
>>154611411What do you mean? It was used well today. Yesterday it was not used well so a player got denied an almost open goal, his team missing out on a penalty and a red card for the opposition.Just improve it so both situations can be corrected, not just one.
>>154613791VAR doesn't eliminate rigging, it legitimizes it
>>154613791If the corner went to Mavropanos and he missed his header because Rice pulled him then I am pretty sure that would have been a penalty. The ball didn't go to Mavropanos so it didn't matter.Personally, I agree with you that every foul should be called no matter where the ball lands, but looking at how they most consistently judge it is only called if the player reaching the ball is impeded he could get a call.Only example I have of when it didn't matter was Lovren getting a free kick for Liverpool when the opposition scored a corner. He was nowhere near the ball but got pulled and went down.
>>154611411It killed the sport in the sense that it made it clear that it wasn't incompetence that led to bad refereeing but corruption even NPCs know now
>>154611411Generational mald
>>154611411
I DIDNT SEE IT GUISEI WILL HAVE TO WATCH IT AGAIN
>>154613377>seething about Higuain when Höwedes could have gotten a red in the first halfAlso, rewatch the entire hame. Holy disgusting style of play by Argentina. Literally just punching and kicking and being niggers.Gg though, fucking great match
>>154614164it was incompetence that lead to the perceived need for it and incompetence that continues to be shown in the failure to utilize it and see it properly. Why is anyone suprised that the refs who fuck up in real time will make any difference when they are allowed the chance to fuck up again with the assistance of a bunch of different camera angles?
