I can't believe that the ref has let that goal stand! As blatant a handball as you'll see. Even ex Man Utd'sGary Neville said he can't believe that goal has stood. Corruption at its finest.....

Possibly the worst decision you will see. The ref needs to be removed permanently from officiating for that. Inexplicable and totally unacceptable for that goal to stand.
Some of the decisions at that place are just laughable. The Celtic one at Motherwell and now that.
VAR is surely dead after this week in it's current form.

So VAR now makes stuff up to suit. “Because it comes off his hip onto his arm it’s accidental”. He held it, nothing accidental about that at all.

Such decisions undermine the whole integrity of how matches are refereed. Yes, the game is a dead rubber but when in match gambling is so prevalent and the amounts of money involved huge, it leads to questions as to whether officials are being influenced.

Virtually no one in the stadium would’ve batted an eyelid if that had been disallowed.  Even cunha didn’t celebrate.

VAR has disappeared up it's own arsehole now. They've tied themselves in knots with so many explanations for poor decisions that it's all got too over thought, too over ruled and too over studied.

They've completely fucked up how it's applied and need a complete rethink as to how we use it in games and what for so it has a minimal impact and referees can begin to learn how to ref a game in real time again.

It isn't a dead rubber. A Forest win moves them up a few places which is worth millions.

To be fair, I think VAR called it, the ref overruled VAR.
