John Motson slams VAR after Manchester United penalty controversy: I call it Virtual Absolute Rubbish it doesnt work!
John Motson launched an amazing rant against VAR on talkSPORT after the controversial finish to Manchester Uniteds stunning Champions League comeback against Paris Saint-Germain.The Red Devils beat the odds to progress to the quarter-finals, overcoming a 2-0 first leg deficit to win 3-1 at the Parc des Princes and go through on away goals.Marcus Rashford grabbed the winning goal in the fourth minute of stoppage-time from the spot, after another delayed decision via the Video Assistant Referee.Rashford kept his cool to send United to the last eight2

But Motty insists the penalty should NOT have been given.After Diogo Dalots speculative shot struck Presnel Kimpembe on the arm, the on-field ref initially signalled for a corner, but he was alerted to review the incident by the VAR and – after a substantial delay as he checked the pitch-side monitor – the spot kick was given for handball.

The law book states it must be a deliberate action for handball to be given, but Motty insists that was not the case with unlucky Kimpembe.And the broadcasting legend simply told talkSPORT on Thursday: “VAR just doesn’t work!”Speaking to Jim White at the opening of the new talkSPORT studios in London, he said: I want to make this point: I wasnt a fan of VAR and I moderated my view slightly during the World Cup, but Ive now gone back to what I thought about it.PSG captain Thiago Silva argues with the referee after he awarded Man United a penalty2

Listen, VAR was brought in to clarify the laws, not to change them! Dont tell me that handball was deliberate!The rule says, at the moment, handball has to be intentional. Well if thats intentional handball, I shouldnt be sitting here talking about football.Now Im taking nothing away from Manchester United. Im delighted for Solksjaer, I think he should get the job now, no question, and I thought it was wonderful Sir Alex Ferguson went in the dressing room.The fact he had ten players injured and still turned around a 2-0 deficit this will go down as one of the great European come backs of all time, but it doesnt alter the fact Man Uniteds third goal will be a bad example of VAR was intended for. You know what I call it? Virtual Absolute Rubbish! It just doesnt work.I thought it was an embarrassment to the referee, I dont think he should have been called across to look at him again. There was no need to alert him!When the video referee puts pressure on the actual referee and says, we think you should go and have another look at that, and he runs across the pitch, hes almost in his mind thinking: Oh my God, I might have got it wrong!

Really makes me angry that I pay over 150 a month for hd cable and they won't air 4-5 Man U games just to try and get me to pay more. You're paying $150 a month for cable which you think is a good deal, but paying $154 per month (cost per month with the new $50 annual NBC fee included) instead is now an outrageous price? the Premier League coverage in the US is simply amazing.
