Honestly, it wouldn't even surprise me at this point. Football is just full of shit like this, at what point are the fans going to start asking why it keeps happening?
We are definitely a lot better than Marseille
The one positive. Please give Gill a legitimate run of Prem games please. its time to see if he can hold up and the skill-set is obviously there.
All true but you dont want to be fucking robbed though
WHAT A FUCKIN SCANDAL!!!
Watching the replays after the game, Emerson AT LEAST a yard further forward than Kane when he heads the ball!!!!
The VAR-ref must be a Gooner, the game is so fucking corrupt it´s mental!
The football authoritys is killing my love for the sport. If we are to continue with VAR we can´t have corrupt supporters as VAR-refs.
Downside
Completely robbed of a CL Group Win, advancing and a relaxing night in France.
I actually can't believe we got conned so blatantly.
AFAIK he can't just do that. If VAR is unable to determine whether his decision is a clear and obvious error, then VAR will refer him to the pitch-side monitor to verify or change his own call.
In this case, VAR had two positions: offside by looking only at little lines or onside by looking at the game and recognizing that Kane was played on-side by the defender. Obviously (to me) there was disagreement in the VAR booth - or at least very considerable doubt. Should have referred it.
We still might have got the bad side of the decision but at least the ref would have been the arbiter. Which is the way it should be.
We didn't lose out because VAR made a wrong decision. We lost 2 points because we didn't show up for the game in the 1st half. Oh and SPL could have drilled another 2 past Lllllllloris if their sub had not been auditioning to play for Spurs.
Edited to add: and if you don't "agree" you could at least explain what part you don't agree with. The way VAR referrals to the ref go? Or that they should have turned it back to him? or that Kane was played onside? or that we didn't show up for the first half? or that SPL could easily have won 1-3?

Who was called offside, Kane?
If that is the case, unless the rules have changed, he can't be because he's behind both Emerson and the ball, doesn't matter if the ball is played forward.
The defender was deliberately defending the cross. How much more deliberate can it get.
We are awful. Shit like persic, royal, Doherty etc play some potential eg Gill
Its an opinion.
They and that stadium when full will be well up for the game against us.
It doesn't matter Emerson played the ball backwards you can not be offside when a ball is played backwards
It deflects off the Sporting player and lands at Kane's feet
He legit under the rules can not be offside a
