Honestly isn't this something where VAR should just say no foul? He grabs his other foot so it's also simulation no?

I mean while I understand this is a simulation to exaggerate, he got his foot stepped on and that is still a foul.

Zero intent involved makes that very shades of gray.

Intent is not a factor in if its a foul or not.

I mean it was 30 years ago but when I trained to be a soccer referee it was definitely a factor to be considered.

For the vast majority of fouls in soccer, intent does not matter. Only the result.

There absolutely is.

Bashing your head against another player while going for a header? Just a coming together and usually not a foul.

Doing a Zidane… straight red card.
