Welcome to the world of the
Video Assistant Referee. Where even when you do your job and correct a mistake you are painted as the villain. Where emotion and adrenaline cloud the judgment of so many of those watching and where a thirst for a preferred outcome turns the sane into madmen and pushes the previously unhinged over the edge and into the abyss. To keep it short‚ the third
Manchester City 'goal' at
Anfield simply could not have been allowed to stand. Well‚ it could have been but the
VAR officials would have had to wilfully and deliberately ignore the laws of football. And while they may often give the impression of regularly doing just that‚ on this occasion they saw the situation exactly for what it was and reached the only outcome possible.
