70’ Becoming a common occurrence this season, as Kelleher goes down needing treatment after Leeds make substitutions. Looks like he’ll now be fine to continue after the Brentford players check in with their manager. 0-0
TV 2 betalte 4,5 mrd. for rettighetene til Eliteserien. Ti dager før sesongen sparkes i gang, er det ingen promotering av ligaen. Tabelltips? Nei. Intervjuer med klubbene om forventninger? Nei. Et par artikler?Nei.
Og den revitaliserte cupen? Ingenting👍
Motbakke for klubbene😅
I’m a supporter of any tool that makes our game fairer.
But VAR was introduced with two simple, powerful principles: “clear and obvious.” It was never meant to mean searching for minutes on end to find a reason to disallow a goal. It was never meant to freeze the game to pick out a single frame and rule someone offside by an inch.
We were told VAR would strengthen referees. Instead, it has made them more hesitant and less authoritative.
This weekend, VAR was given an even wider mandate. At the very same meeting, new rules were introduced to reduce time-wasting, yet the biggest source of delay in modern football is VAR itself.
I still believe in using technology to make football fairer. But in its current form, VAR risks damaging the flow of the game and the experience of the fans. And without the fans, there is no game.
Just watched O'Nien's high rugby tackle on Struijk in the area. Penalty, yellow card and sent to review in rugby union. This is what VAR is there for. What are they looking at?
