Newcastle United 4-1 Paris Saint-Germain (04/10/23)


Recommended Posts

Reading through the thread, interesting to see so many taking the opportunity to express their hate towards VAR after they gave us back the Burn goal which was wrongfully disallowed by the refs for offside.[emoji38] And some complaints about them taking too long, all I can say is that one of the main critiques from the Liverpool incident was that they rushed it too much. They were probably spending time looking at the possible handball, not the offside. Who knows what would've happened this game if VAR didn't give us back the goal that we earned, but almost lost to the refs. Without VAR this game we could've ended up being annoyed for ages about a huge win being taken away from us by the refs, but instead we are here celebrating a massive win. Not saying we wouldn't have won if the goal wasn't allowed, but you never know.

Would have been fine if there was some actual communication from the officials, but the camera was trained on the ref looking bemused with the comms having no idea what was going on.
