I wonder if the whistle blew before Bofo got free (meaning the defender let him go when the whistle blew). Crossbar!
VAR in our favor again! I'm pretty surprised by that call back too. Maybe the ref had a better camera angle, but that was too close to change the call in my opinion.
How so? In the replay on TV, the ball was a good 80-90% out when it hit the ground, and continued forward. It was well beyond being out before it was played. Absolutely. I still don't see how he was calling that VAR review a judgement call. It was easily 100% out. And he went anti homer and had to die on the hill of not being sure of it.
Sleeping kids require me to have the game on mute. The angles I saw were not that definitive. I admit that I could be way off base.
