    shit like this with VAR makes me not want to watch… so fucking stupid. i thought VAR was supposed to help refs make better calls, not worse. any time a player refuses to take an actual step and instead puts his feet together to fall is a clear signal of a dive. no one fucking falls like that… take an extra step because you are off balance and then fall, fine, but no fucking person falls like that

    Full Sky penalty saying no penalty because they are never given. Absolute joke by the ref.

    Hope they got our apology read haha

    Maybe I’m alone on this but I feel like there has to be more to be a penalty than just a normal foul in the box. Cancelling out a clear goal scoring opportunity or an egregious/dangerous foul = penalty, just a foul = yellow card or indirect free kick or something else. The level of punishment does not fit the crime on this play.

    So the referee can stop the game even if the ball is in play to check the monitor and make a decision? Huh, funny how it benefits City to get a soft as fuck penalty, whereas a completely legitimate Liverpool goal is… “can’t do anything”

    Sterling literally gets shoved to the floor by a defender nowhere near the ball: No penalty

    Hojlund doesn’t defend with his hands in his pockets: Penalty?

    tbh I agree it’s a penalty. but they should always be called, not just sometimes. hope it doesn’t kill the game, it’s been good so far.
