A vivid example of why video referees don’t always work in sport
This is brilliant, verging on sabotage. A vivid example of why video referees don’t always work in sport. See if you can spot what’s going to happen, before it happens.
The clues are there.
absolute scenes in Portugal tonight, Boavista concede a blatantly offside goal but the ref can't use VAR to prove it because someone was blocking the camera with a giant flag pic.twitter.com/pJQkwef6iu

What can possibly be done?
This will only mean that flags will now start being banned from grounds because TV companies will demand it leading to yet more shite atmospheres..going the match will soon become pointless as everything is geared towards TV audiences!!
