The Premier League's Independent Key Match Incidents Panel has ruled the referee and the VAR were correct to award Newcastle United's winning goal against Arsenal.
That doesn’t make it any better lol. How could anybody think that VAR shouldn’t intervene? It’s violent conduct pure and simple. Semantics aren’t going to change that.
I read it as they were split 3-2 on whether VAR should have intervened. It’s not clear what the split was on the actual incident itself
Surely a vote for VAR not to intervene is the same as a vote saying it isn’t a red card
That’s not how anything works. Lots of legal cases are dismissed or lost on pure procedure and not the actual objective truth.
Process is a part of justice as well.
That’s still ridiculous.
