So if I interpret the response to my article, the VAR decision to award the penalty null and voids the passage of play that happens during the decision process. If either City or Spurs had scored in those 3 minutes, the goal would have been disallowed and City would have had a penalty?

I’ve no idea if that’s the case but it sounds like the only sensible process to follow imo.

I think that the only sensible process to follow is that if a VAR review has been authorized then play should immediately stop. The referee should be notified within 5-10 seconds. Continuing play while a VAR review is being contemplated is absurd!
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I think so too

Depends how long the check takes. Would agree that several minutes is too long but stopping the game for every check is also absurd imo.

It's like bowling another over in cricket while the review is in process.......reckon stupid

There are not that many checks per game are there? I rather it stopped than watch a live passage of play that could then be declared void.

Except football doesn’t have the natural breaks in play that cricket does.

Try stopping a game five times a half for a VAR check and see how the crowd finds it.

But that is why I am interested in the stats so far about how any VAR reviews are there on average per game

I can tolerate a car check much more than the blatant time wasting by players reigning injury

VAR check

Think the WC was 7 per game but the PL is 5.

Imagine the groans in the crowd though, after yet another stoppage.

Wouldn’t go down well, would it?

There’s probably no right answer and to be fair, it’s one of the issues with technology in a sport that thrives on continuation and speed.

But they are not all for pen claims. I imagine most are for checking goals.
