    Yeah, it was offside. Clear.
    Sorry Leicester.

    Don't be sorry... just say, "tough shit" and shrug your
    shoulders.

    The FA wanted a "consistent refereeing approach" so chose not to
    use VAR in the FA Cup until the fifth round. So that's their
    baby...

    Well, he could remember it for the next time he
    sees a refereeing conspiracy against Man United.

    Anti-VAR people often conveniently forget how
    commonplace such botched offside calls used to be,
    so goals like Maguire‘s can at least serve as a stark
    reminder.

    Regarding offside decisions I’m perfectly happy with
    the VARobots.


    Ciao,
    Werner

    The thing is, Leicester City's stadium is equipped for VAR, so
    they could have used it for this match. However, the FA in the
    interest of "fairness" thought it was wise no to... but without
    VAR you get to see how poor the officiating in England is
    without it!

    Regarding offside decisions I’m perfectly happy with
    the VARobots.

    Just wait until the semi-automated offside decisions come in to
    the Premier League later on this season. Then the fun will
    begin... as we all know the officials will find a way to fuck up
    the automation somehow! :-)

    No, I consider it payback in part for the past.
