  1. While I don't like the outcome. I don't feel aggrieved that the ref didn't go to the screen. Goal Line Tech had been pretty much faultless up to that point.
    VAR wasn't supposed to be used for goal line decisions. HENCE Goal Line tech…

    Would the guy in Stockley Park have any reason whatsoever to doubt the automated technology? I would think not..

  2. You know what happened next after this game. Aston Villa not only spared their relegation, but they also returned back to Europe with Unai Emery. Sheffield United, on the other hand, got relegated the next season after this best Premier League finish. Even they made a swift return this season, the club is also disappointed again and are on verge of being relegated once more.

    Edit: Turns out that both sides had a disappointing start this season. Aston Villa lost to Legia Warsaw, while Sheffield United is even worse (0-8 vs Newcastle United).

  3. Remembered watching it live… mad scene. Davis being there to push Nyland over the line may have also disrupted Hawkeye and saved us. People were too upset over this decision though, we had been robbed numerous times that season like at Crystal Palace when Friend blew on a perfectly fine goal. That free kick also came from a dive + that goal being allowed would have ultimately changed the rest of the game/season too so Bournemouth and Watford can have no complaints.

  4. Worth to note, the referees watch only gets a signal from hawkeye if the ball crosses the line, but hawkeye itself gives a positive or negative outcome. In this instance hawkeye gave no result as it lost the ball, and there was no procedure in place for hawkeye to inform the officials with this being so rare. The result being VAR left the decision to the on-field referee.
