You had one job........

Okay, possibly two (checking the keeper stayed on his line being the other)

    That is an absolutely atrocious decision. I don't think that linesman should work in football again.

    Its disappointing they lost the appeal... I get the fact that you dont want to set a precident in the future but cmon, they had serious grounds

    And right there an example of why VAR is critical in checking goals. 

    That is as CLEAR AND OBVIOUS an error as you'll ever see.

    If the linesman "didn't see" the ball that far over the line he's either so visually impaired as to be a danger to himself or else he's just flat out bent.

    Who needs VAR or notifications for a cock up like that, you can see from the dirt kicked up by the ball clearly landing over the line, what on earth was the lino watching, and what an acceptance by the guy for what he said was an "error"..unbelievable

    Classy response from the manager, refreshing to see.

    How that manager has the dignity to make a response like that is beyond me and probably millions of others,really that sets an example to some of the other moaners who dont have anything like the grievance that he had.

    what about the technology that supposedly spots when the whole of the ball is over the goal line ? .. was that not in use or is it not used in penalty shoot outs

    I doubt that league could afford it.
