It's a red card, for fucks sake. Fuck this VAR shit.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

How is it possible the ref doesnt see that handball from Kante?

And how is it possible that VAR doesn't get involved and get Kante sent off?

 

[The Bear]

Not handball for me. Left side of his chest. Didn't think it hit the arm after either.

 

[Haggstone]

So why isn’t the ref being asked to take a look at that. It’s pathetic.

 

[big mean bunny]

Only got the BBC comms on but they are both saying its not handball.

Agree but that’s where the consistency thing comes in. Even the comms here pointed out the discrepancy in Coote’s call now vs. Moss’s call against City.

Not sure what you're saying. You want them to give an obvious error just to even up the one we got, in the name of consistency?

Do you want a link to watch?

 

[Throbber3]

I am happy if it’s not given but it has to be ducking checked surely?

maybe it was?

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

I've seen reds given for that Chalobah tackle.

 

[BillyDee]

Fuck VAR

...

 

[Throbber3]

Don’t think so . No sign of the ref pointing to his ear which is usual when players are protesting

The game was still going on. Just because the comms don't say its being checked doesn't mean it isn't.

 

[Banjo]

Chalobah's foot was high in his tackle. Seen reds given for those.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

Sa did well there.

 

[Throbber3]

Nice to see our free kicks are still shit

 

[Freddeno]

Good from Sa to come out and just cover pulisic

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

Who is on co-comms?

Absolutely not. I’d rather neither were given. But if Moutinho’s is, then Kante’s should be.
