Isn't the only reason they are debating it though because they are either too dumb to understand the rules or the fact that they are looking at a 2d image in a 3d world, or, itv are trying to drum up advertising clicks and content?
What’s the inconsistency?
Maybe I’m missing some of the facts here. Was it technology in the ball that allowed this to stand or was it VAR that made the call.
This is exactly it.
Var is the tech in the ball that’s the point.
So does this tech work on all lines - would it know if the ball goes out for a throw in or not?
I believe it worked on this occasion because it was in shot on the goal line technology
..and they're completely stupid
I think the latter - they love the controversy and it stimulates interest, including this thread!
How do we know that footage hasn't been manipulated to justify themselves?
Yes in theory as it knows where it is everywhere on the pitch that’s how they knew Ronaldo never headed it as the chip didn’t move.
This was shown twice on the post match discussion between Souness and Co last night. It was clear to me but I did wonder if they didn't get the same footage in the studio due to their comments.
It stays in, but 'clearly' - I think not. You have to watch it in slo mo, and repeatedly, to be fairly sure. It was the correct decision but it wasn't clear unless you have access to the video in slo mo.
