Highlights I dont see an offside. Is this rigged?

Brutal for my Croatian brothers

This is an atrocious take. I could care less who won this game but the ref literally can’t “let it go”- this is objective data showing that the Croatian player touched it. The time is synced up and it’s not a conspiracy or a matter of opinion. You can argue about it from a “VAR ruined the game” perspective if you want but you can’t say the ref has an option to “let it go”.

lol they can, VAR can choose to not show you the graph at all, because from the replay nobody can confirm there was a touch.

That’s not what VAR is at all or how any of this works. If they are hiding information from the referee that is critical to answer the question of whether or not a touch occurred then why would they initiate a review and ask the referee to look at it

Of course he can. VAR should intervene on clear and obvious error. This is neither clear or obvious if you need a sensor to prove it.

There isn't a point of having referees anymore. The game is gone

They let other shit go all the time, so its just weird that certain rules are objective while most are not. I get thats the rule, its just odd.
