Mental.
Handball given after the final whistle and Fernandes scores the penalty.
Out. Of. Jail.

How can he blow for FT and then give a penalty bonkers, United get away with it again, their luck won't hold out for ever though, and Ole will know they dodged a bullet today, it's probably a good job there's no crowd at the AMEX today, they'd be going potty at that decision.

Apart from that didn’t happen.
They were both at the same pace. Connolly got in front, threw his leg back and then his legs went. There as no ‘impact’ to cause a fall.
The VAR saw that, the ref saw that, the commentators saw that and agreed but you saw something else.
I give up. This is going nowhere. Regardless, Brighton were robbed.

It's not bonkers at all because the infringement was before the full time whistle.

They wouldn’t. They’d be mincing about like they always do, trying to pretend they’re anything other than the tin pot club they really are.

Good idea. When everyone else sees something but you, it’s probably best to recognise that it’s you who has got it wrong.

Yep. Commentators, pundits, referee and VAR all wrong because you don’t like top six clubs and saw something that didn’t happen.
Good idea to stop now.

Ah! right fair enough then I didn't realise that, so the ref is perfectly entitled to check the monitor and award a spot-kick in that case, it was a spot-kick I don't think anyone is debating that, and it was stupid from Maupay to give the ref a decision to make, especially so late in the game, after Brighton had battled back to level.

Exactly why VAR is needed. Don’t like either side but clear penalty. The extended injury time was justified due to the Brighton goal and ensuing celebrations.

And entirely Brighton's own fault for taking ages to celebrate their equaliser. Time correctly added for that.

Point is, VAR only looks at things once the ball is "dead" and on this occasion the next time it went dead was for the final whistle. So it's an odd one, but we would expect a VAR penalty in those circumstances.

I wish they would. He's doing far too well for the shower he's with at the moment.
Mind you, it might not matter. They have already said that they are in serious financial trouble because of Covid.

Probably about the same as the Forest manager TBH, depends which owner pulls the trigger first, but I can't see either lasting much longer.

Players will be cutting their arms off soon, what is Ward supposed to do in that situation, how can that be seen as intentional handball a complete joke of a decision.
If that's the limit for awarding penalties now, then we'll see a record amount of spot-kicks given this season, I've no doubt.

Can anyone tell me how VAR has improved the game? I can't see it. Yes, it might get some decisions right but it slows the game down and seems to get just as many decisions wrong, so what's the point?
Someone must be making an awful lot of money out of it, or contracts to supply it are far to costly to cancel, otherwise it would surely have been scrapped long before now?

The more I see of the modern game the more I am happy that there are non-league games to go to --at least for a few years until they mess about with the game even more.
That penalty awarded to Everton was a complete joke and, as tiger76 says, there will be loads more like that this season.
