In the Euros, it seems that the on-field referee is more confident that his decisions will not be challenged, when they are and it's suggested he checks the monitor, it seems he goes with the VAR suggestion and trusts he/she may have missed something. (after a check)
Not just the Euro's but in Italy, Germany etc that's how they use VAR

The Premier League have for some reason done it their own way and made a balls of it

As a simple football fan I just want to celebrate goals properly again, players on the pitch feel the same. Don't care how but needs to get sorted out.
Yeah but on the flip side how great does it feel when the opposition score a goal and it gets ruled out?! :D

Remember the Liverpool - Newcastle game where they scored an equaliser in injury time and it was cancelled by VAR? That felt great! :lol: I know Newcastle equalised in the end but I sill enjoyed that moment!

Yeah, those are new feelings for sure :D Not all bad, but still a bad trade-off I think.

The Sol Campbell goal that was disallowed in a world cup was the death nail to the anti-VAR campaign.

Good call, the kebab might be extra salty from all the tears :)

I'm just happy there's a team doing worse than Croatia!

Catching a players foot seems to have many different interpretations in this tournament.

I was trading the under 0.5 market while watching the other match. Got stung by that goal, could do with one or two more in the other match.
