markf1 1 Posted December 15, 2019 Should the Leicester goal been allowed as the ball from the corner was NOT in the semi circle? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Surfer 1,547 Posted December 15, 2019 Quite simply, NO. But the linesman didn’t spot that, so there we have it. Don’t think it is a VAR reviewable issues - another VAR problem if so. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JF 694 Posted December 15, 2019 Apparently is just overhanging but it’s an absolute nonsense. Just state in the rules it has to be taken from within the marked area to avoid all this 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wcorkcanary 4,314 Posted December 15, 2019 Watching it live, I thought it was outside the quadrant, but it was the camera angle, second time of viewing could see it was clearly overhanging the quadrant line and therefore ok. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capt. Pants 4,089 Posted December 15, 2019 Wasn't the corner taken right in front of the Norwich fans? Why didn't they point it out to the lino, or was it just because Maddison was taken the corner? We need the fans to be switched on as well, not just the defenders 🤪 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GenerationA47 736 Posted December 15, 2019 Ive got all het up about this at games in the past. Yesterday’s was as bad as they come. But overall now I’d say the extra 3” or whatever is not really an appreciable advantage. So are we really that bothered? ie. Is the principle of it actually worth anything Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Making Plans 929 Posted December 15, 2019 I'd be more concerened about the marking, or lack of it, on Vardy. Free header inside the 6 yard box and, as they say, "zones never score goals but unmarked players frequently do" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BroadstairsR 2,093 Posted December 16, 2019 (edited) I will cut and paste my contribution in the current VAR thread which deserves some recognition as I spent the best part of Sunday morning on these intricate calculations:-. "Having very carefully worked out the trajectory, the angle and the pace of the kick, and taking into account the surface temperature and wind speed on the day and JM's shoe size I have come to the conclusion that without those two inches of advantage it would have meant the ball would have struck Vardy's head at an angle that would have caused the headed ball to miss Krul's outstretched arm and go straight on to Zimbo's left peg to be booted into touch." Result: 0-1. Joking apart I cannot for the life of me see how that extra inch gained would make any difference, the above conclusion could have been reversed after all. However, as they all seem to do it there must be some perceived advantage and although we have a manager who has in the past professed the importance of attention to detail this tactic seems to be stretching it a bit. Having freeze-framed the highlights of their goal Maddison's infringement was one of the most blatant examples of the practise. As the co-commentator (?) repeated several times on the television it was against the rules. Rules need obeying, they are there for a reason no matter how seemingly trivial. I have to agree with his conclusion that the kick was illegal because it was an infringement of these rules. The bottom line is that this incident, no matter how seemingly minor, just goes to emphasise just how bad a job those eminent persons who implemented VAR did. We know linesmen can be blind at regular intervals, but the camera doesn't lie. Ask Prince Andy. Edited December 16, 2019 by BroadstairsR Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, I've slept on it and can of course understand why people would want to applaud him, so maybe I was a bit too provocative, but I do think people underestimate sometimes the power of a group of fans to affect what happens in a game. Maybe the best thing would have been to applaud him as he approached and then started barracking him as he shaped up to take the corner...... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nuff Said 4,936 Posted December 16, 2019 Also, none of us complained when Madders did the same when he took corners for us, every other team does it, we probably do it sometimes and what does it actually gain? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
