I know it’s the sweaties but how did VAR decide on cancelling this worldie for a foul on the Spanish keeper

On the radio they were saying UEFA clarified it was not given due to offside (15 minutes after).

The guy (sweatie) said it was a fair call, I can't watch the video at work to see, but the weirdness around it all and saying initially it was foul is very odd.

If I were a betting man I'd say they disallowed it in the VAR room, asked the ref to confirm the offside, he's thought they were disallowing for a foul and went to the monitor - and whether he thought he saw something or not the general rule is 'called over - dissallow' so he's gone with that. So right decision, wrong reason! But what do I know.

From the Angle behind McTom the other Jock stands near the keeper and the keeper kinda moves back. From that angle it looks like the player gives the keeper a bit of a push.

The reverse (and closer) angle shows it’s not a foul in a million years. Not convinced it’s offside either…

I don’t know how the qualifying tables look but if a positive Scottish result but Spain’s chances of qualifying in jeopardy then well who knows…

They need to be careful, too many out there trying to gain political capital off the back of all this. I saw an MP was kicking off about Council buildings being lit up in what they claimed were Palestinian flag colours, before it was gently pointed out to them that it was to celebrate black history month and had been lit up like that for ages!

Should have kept their beaks out from the outset. They lit the arch for Ukraine.

What colours they gonna go for, considering it seems pretty neck and neck in terms of innocent numbers killed on either side whilst the dick waving goes on between the leaders of Israel and Hamas.

They should light it up with both flags and a dove of peace in the middle.
Too many people in the world living in the 12th century.

I actually really like this idea. Sadly it won't happen though.

Well,yeah I agree but I think it would be churlish to consider only one side's innocent losses.

Lashing a dove to the Wembley arch would just piss off the animal rights people!  Wink
