St-Ettiene's great 2nd half of the season continues, this time coming back from a goal down and a man down to win 2-1 with goals in the 91st & 94th minute!
5 games to go and they are 1 point away from an automatic promotion place
There's also a problem that the decision given affects the game from that point on, whereas with cricket the ball is dead and they can judge things at their leisure. If a linesman flags for offside the game stops, so if VAR proves that decision was wrong then how do you recover from stopping a prom...
wrttop - basic starting formations offered up by the broadcaster suggesting strongly it tells the story of what's going happen, but in reality they actually offer very little insight into how that team is going to play.
Won't that just mean the higher-placed team sets up with a 10-0-0 formation and kills the game as a spectacle? no. Its just not that big of an advantage that teams set out from the start to do nothing but defend it. When it comes down to the last 10 minutes of a game then maybe they do that, but th...

enjoyed the video of the Man Utd fans outside Wembley, who quickly left when Cov thought they got the winner, but then heard it was VAR'd out, running to get back into the ground
I'm trying to think of a similarly embarrassing Reading win, but can't think of any because when we humiliate ourselves we do the decent thing and let the non League guys get the day in the sun their performance deserves. :lol: I guess is Utd do the impossible and beat City today will be forgotten....
Royals and Racers Statement from the National league states Gateshead will not be allowed to partake in the play-offs- Solihull Moors take their place.
Solihull Moors were already in the play offs though weren't they?
