Re: VAR
Rab C NesbittIt was without doubt a penalty and a red card, how the ref can say minimal contact is way beyond words, and yes the linesman should have been on it too, makes you wonder is it just players who like a bet or twoThat’s subjective I agree. What shout have been subjective is that it was a foul. Mental really you have a couple of thousand screaming for a penalty but a ref or lino can’t see a foul. The link had a fantastic view of it as well I presume
The ref didn't apparently say "minimal contact" - he said "minimum contact" .... and according to Rooney's interview the referee "was clear with his decision and didn't want to take advice from the linesman or the fourth official".
2:37 onwards here ..
