I thought he got a slight touch on the ball but he brought down Griezmann as well. Doesn't that make in a penalty? Looked like it could have been a deliberate trip. Maybe - but then he did get a touch on the ball. Now if he'd got a stronger touch and knocked the ball miles away and THEN Griezmann went down there'd be no debate - everyone would be saying fantastic tackle! If it's in the process of the same tackle I don't think you can penalise the defender. But then that's just my opinion but I think the point is that it's not really unambiguous enough to use the VAR to overrule the on field judgement. Apparently VAR was still looked at on Australia's penalty (the handball) even though the ref. had no doubts about it. That's what the BBC commentary team claimed anyway. |
