VAR 21:36 - Jun 21 with 6926 views | VanSaParody | Wrong AGAIN Netherlands should be 1-0 v France Yes he's in an offside position, but NOT in GK's line of sight & made no attempt to move towards the ball as it flew in the net I'm afraid if the GK says he's unable to dive left cos that's where the player is, the GK should be diving left anyway Pathetic VAR decision AGAIN Yet another reason it should be scrapped altogether |  | | |  |

Correct, you're absolutely right However, we currently DO have VAR, so it's supposed to be used to eliminate clear & obvious errors by the on field officials Before VAR, we just had the ref to blame for making a wrong decision With VAR, we have the team of officials, technology AND the VAR team ...& between the lot, they're STILL getting some really clear & obvious things ABSOLUTELY WRONG |  | |  |

Yep. It should have taken one look and about 15 seconds to double check there wasn’t a clear and obvious error. Really poor officiating to let that drag on the way they did. |  |

This one wasn't clear and obvious though. It's a judgement call whether he's impeding the keeper or not. |  |

Clear and obvious to you but not to everyone, including the on field officials and VAR. Where he's stood, you can see why they felt he was interfering. |  |

VAR on 22:50 - Jun 21 with 2532 views | ArnoldMoorhen | It would have been offside, full stop, no question, up until relatively recently. My question is: why does Dumfries walk towards the goal, and give the ref the opportunity to give him offside? He doesn't know where the shot is going to go when he goes and stands in the 6 yard box. I don't see it as an outrageously bad decision, as it seems everyone else does. He was in an offside position, he is in the way of the keeper being able to dive. If he wasn't there, every single professional keeper in the world would dive there and make an attempt to save the ball. It is his presence in an offside position that takes that opportunity away. If there was even a one in a thousand chance of the keeper saving it then he has interfered. I think, if he isn't there, then the odds are better than that. I think many referees wouldn't give it, but I think a lot would. And I would give it as offside. |  | |  |

No, because it would be the correct decision As upsetting as it will be in this scenario as it would be against us However, tonight's clear & obvious error by first, the on field officials for disallowing it, then VAR for NOT asking on field officials to review their otherwise, clear & obvious error, is for me, having looked at it from a neutral perspective, as I have absolutely no affiliation to either of these two teams/nations So my opinion, I believe, is in the interest of fairness |  | |  |

Right. I didnt see it live so cant comment on the delay and all that nonsense. But an incredibly difficult call for a ref. Neither answer is definitively wrong, and anyone who suggests it is, is being silly. He is right in the ball's path. Would it have made a difference? Hard to say. Probably not. But the rule is not based on that. Is he involved in the play? It almost goes through him. Its offside imo. But silly to complain about either interpretation. |  | |  |

Surely in these "interfering with play" dilemmas, the on field decision is always going to be offside because the lino has to flag as he/she has no input on if the player is interfering. That makes it harder to give a goal than disallow a goal if we are always applying "clear and obvious error" to a decision which will always start with "no goal" |  |

That's why the lino and the ref had a conversation before disallowing it. The ref would have had a different view to the lino of where Memphis was stood. |  |
