That would be completely mental. Players will get into the box and immediately boot it at a defenders arm.

The UEFA guidance is all about the silhouette of the body and Llorentes arm is inside the line of his body, not moving toward the ball, and if barely flicks his arm.

Pretty sure they recently changed the rule to say any goal scored directly from a handball would be disallowed even if the handball itself wasn’t a foul?

But honestly it looked like the ball hit his hip

VAR can always be improved, but I'm always going to side with keeping it instead of going back to without it. The system will work the way it's supposed to....eventually.

I assume emotional choice of wording is why I am confused here rather than anything else, can you clarify wtf you mean? The offside shout was correct and I, personally (admittedly biased but I literally went and looked myself about 2 inches from my TV) can't see what the confusion was about with the Llorente goal, it deflects onto his thigh/hip and goes in, in fact if it was in danger of hitting ANY hand it was the City player grabbing Llorente's hip.

Yeah its clear from that one angle that, if anything, the ball went off Laporte's hand.

In the interest of balance and keeping the discussion going

https://twitter.com/CBurleyESPN/status/1118655091127586816

This angle makes it even more interesting. Here we appear to have Laporte pushing Llorente, a possible deflection off Llorente's elbow AS WELL AS contact with Laporte's fingers.

Given VAR is supposed to adjudicate on "clear and obvious errors" I think the goal stands.

e: Ignore the tweet's wording, that's the stuff for NEXT season I believe.

Were going to know by next Wednesday if City is winning the league so I don’t think advancing would have much of an impact.

This result was funny regardless.

I already said I thought the ball hit llorente's hip, I have no problem with the actual decisions of VAR, I just meant the specific circumstance of banging in what you think is an injury time winner in a crucial match and celebrating accordingly and then having it overturned is bullshit

Again, enjoy the schadenfreude but when it happens to your team its gonna suck as equally

That makes no sense though... Its not an injury time winner if the goal shouldn't stand.

Bit rich for City fans to complain about VAR making a right call considering how they’d be out of the FA Cup were it not for the FA’s bizarre ”oh we don’t want VAR in non-premier league stadiums for some reason” logic.

This doesn’t balance the books or even come close but it’s a start.
