So what is the actual point of var then?

With Taylor as ref, feck all.

The only reason he's not worse than Moss is he's three stone lighter.

Absolutely wank ref

This is the problem.
We squandered so many goal scoring chances, now we are 1-1.
If this goes to penalties, it's anybody's game.

Yes quite how it is 1-1 is beyond me.

el3mel · Feb 4, 2022

Ok that confirms it, the ref isn't just a clown, he's a complete circus.

The handball didn't even need VAR to check it out. It was clear from the start.

Clowns.

LilyWhiteSpur · Feb 4, 2022

Come on Boro!

choccy77 · Feb 4, 2022

How is that not handball in any form of logical reality?

Nytram Shakes · Feb 4, 2022

He basically controls it with his hand ….. crazy! Absolutely crazy!

That goal deserved to be given because Henderson was to pathetic to try and stop the ball and instead stood waving his arm in the air.

As did captain incredible.

Andycoleno9 · Feb 4, 2022

Maguire and Varane are not good combo. Varane doing all stuff and when he fecks up, Maguire is not quick enough to cover him

United in sin · Feb 4, 2022

Maguire struggled there

James35 · Feb 4, 2022

Joke of a decision but we only have our shite finishing to blame if we don’t win this.

What is the purpose of VAR? Clear as day.

It's not VAR, it's the rule being stupid apparently.

NewYorkRed · Feb 4, 2022

How in the world has that been allowed to stand. Nonsense. He gains an obvious advantage by controlling it with his hand.

pauldyson1uk · Feb 4, 2022

WTF that was about as handball as you can get.

lex talionis · Feb 4, 2022

The announcers are making a mess of themselves to justify the no call.

Rustyspider13 · Feb 4, 2022

Ridiculous! I have no idea how that stood.

Sassy Colin · Feb 4, 2022

Nice dummy from the ref

elnorte · Feb 4, 2022

Was about to say we got away with it thinking it would be disallowed. Don't know what to say now other than we've got ourselves to blame to a large extent by playing pretty poorly this half.

He correctly applied the law.

The law is the problem.

They just clarified that's not correct on commentary

SirAnderson · Feb 4, 2022

Feck sake, how is that not disallowed.
Shambles, utter shambles.

ColoRed · Feb 4, 2022

The ball came from his own body part and another player scored the goal. At least that is what was said on German TV

No var in the cup

@GDaly95 nice to see someone from Wroclaw on here. My favourite city, Going back there in May

Dobba · Feb 4, 2022

Forget VAR, it's a complete crock of shit, how did the stupid bastard referee not spot it live.

L1nk · Feb 4, 2022

If a defender handles that then they give a penalty 100% of the time so how is it not the same the other way around!?

He proved himself in the German league and at international level before he arrived at United, mate.

It could be a simple case of him finally settling at the club.

I'm just jesting, I rate him. Though I have to point out he's not been great for England and the German league statically is way weaker than the PL. Maybe it's akin to the championship?

el3mel · Feb 4, 2022

Anyway, we should have killed the game with the ton of chances we got. Somehow, we have ourselves to blame, still.

That's been allowed to make the match more interesting, it shouldn't have been allowed.

Yes, Michael Masi on VAR

Ex Gooner, City supporting Dixon

Ranchero · Feb 4, 2022

Anything wrong with Telles? Shaw has been poor

Grib · Feb 4, 2022

thats actually mental

killerboi2 · Feb 4, 2022

One of the worst VAR decisions I have seen in my life :lol:

Good thing it's only the FA cup.

shazzmufc · Feb 4, 2022

How on earth is that allowed to stand? Ridiculous

No it didn't because it's one of the most blatant examples of controlling the ball with your arm that you'll ever see.

No it doesn't

Just because we don't score 6, they don't deserve a handball goal

The illegality of the goal, no. Was still poor defending was it not?

Irrational. · Feb 4, 2022

This is exactly what VAR is for. It isn’t fit for purpose and needs fecking off if clear errors like that are allowed to stand. cnuts.

Dec9003 · Feb 4, 2022

Can’t believe they’ve given that, need to take them apart now.

On ITV they’re clearly saying it’s a very bad decision.

Sandikan · Feb 4, 2022

Didn't for a second worry that would be disallowed...i was already penning a post mocking that gimp Crooks for his ludicrous celebration.

Then that happened!

Dazzmondo · Feb 4, 2022

That is genuinely one of the worst decisions I've ever seen
