I bet taking a knee on kick off triggered a few.

Must admit I opened this thread expecting it to be all about the players taking the knee at the start of the game!

I wonder whether the sensor on the bar or posts hasn’t been turned on? Otherwise they would show the goal line tech graphic.

Clearly some kind of blind spot regarding the post/behind the post.

And VAR can't step in and overrule a system that already exists for that specific reason. Can only be looked at after this game.

Question mark about whether the WHOLE of the ball had crossed the WHOLE of the line. The majority was certainly behind the post but was ALL of it?

The fact that they didn’t show the graphic that is automatically generated on goal line incidents tells me that the technology has either failed completely or isn’t switched on.

I thought the match was alright tbh. It’s a match that doesn’t really matter (I know we can finish higher and want Utd to lose) but realistically it won’t make a huge difference. It’s a 6pm Wednesday game in June. We used to international tournaments, crowds, big games this time of year. It’s a flat with no real fans there. But the actual football was okay tbh.

I’m not saying there’s definitely a link between the two but goal line technology was flawless before Dominic Cummings took a trip to Barnard Castle.

The keeper had the ball in his hands, clutched to his chest, with his arm leaning on the rear side of the post. It surely couldn’t have been anything other than over the line.

Doesn’t really matter in what sense?

Villa are fighting relegation and Sheff United could get into Europe.

Apparently because it is the same passage of play when the keeper rolls the ball out, after the incident. It can go to VAR and it could over rule GLT but they didn’t bother with that either.

Sorry - see what you mean now :)

To be fair, I suspect that this will have pretty big viewing figures, it being the first game back. Perhaps far more interest in the game than there usually might have been, outside of the fans of each team.
