But the match is over and madrid have won so now whatever the facts are useless i think....

Hi, its Selena Trump here. A Farcaster Explorer and a WEB3 LOVER 💜

I think VAR is doing more harm than good. It was supposed to make football fairer but instead its adding layers of doubt and controversy. The fact that it takes so long for decisions despite all the technology available makes it feel more like a tool for manipulation than fairness. You're right if a fan with a 2D image can spot an offside faster than a team of referees with 3D tech something isnt adding up.

I also fans are losing faith in the integrity of the game and when that happens football itself is at risk. Whether it's deliberate manipulation or just incompetence, the outcome is the same VAR is ruining the experience.

we are still missing the other leg, RM only took advantage, MC is alive

anyway, must be said.. the VAR is manipulating football.. it does not fix anything, corners are battlefields again, defenders are now more aggressive out of the box and still missing obvious penalties..

on top of that, it allows third parties to manipulate referee choices.. even offsides.. and grow the bets (this bypass between referee choice and the action allows injecting malicious data.. like bad images, bad perspectives and force referee to take bad choices.. and this happening on too level games.. this will destroy football.. if it is not already destroyed..

how a group of professional referees with all this tech, 3D, cameras, and so on.. need 4 minutes to say something and a simple guy with a 2D photo drawing some lines get the truth in less time

there are something dark going on.. I have no proof but I have no doubt too
