This is so dumb... the only reason I even watch football is the malicious glee I get when a dumb celebration is cancelled after VAR clearly shows it was an invalid goal.

The Premier League’s figures show the number of correct decisions in matches has increased from 82% before VAR was introduced to 96% currently. With semi-automated offside technology due to be introduced early next season, it is felt that figure will increase even further.

So these people want to have 1/5 of the decisions be wrong again in order to win. How amazingly convenient.
