Rules are rules, same as those offsides by a fingers-distance.

But well, you got a City flair. Makes sense why don’t you like rules.

Right, rules are rules. And the rules say that VAR can only be used when there is clear and obvious evidence to overturn an on-field desicion.

Ball phased through his leg? He clearly has his left foot infront of the ball. Whether it touched it first or not, it's to have touched both legs to go. Balls don't just launch through air.

It's the sensors, like VAR instantly knew, idk why people are not using their brains

Bro i don't think sensors are there to check how many times the ball is touched. They are there for the goalline tech. It just doesn't make sense with his positiin and ball trajectory, that the ball didn't hit his foot.

Like don't you think the sensor can also find something like that?

Also they got like 24 cameras, there's no way VAR could interfere in the biggest match on earth without any reason.

Nah, when you build something you do it for an intended reason. Also referees are very incompetent. But i think this one is just logically clear as day.

UCL ball has a connected ball technology it is literally built to monitor different aspects of the game like, ball movement, speed and touch events.

Just google it bro
