I always expect the worst. Prefer to be positivly surprised than to have my hopes and dreams shattered.

It works great as a football supporter but has probably held me back in my professional life ...

Shocking and is the reason why VAR is open to corrupt or inept officials.

Thats actually exactly how it works...
The ref on the pitch doesnt have to go over and view the screen himself. He can, but he doesnt have to in order to overturn a call.


If that's how it works then it should work but it doesn't work , therefore its not working .....It needs to work.

Jimmy Durmaz. Swedish hipster. Grows his own peppers, which he uses in his dark chocolate and smoked chipotle triple stout that he brews himself.

Funny, if Germany had a young winger that could decide a game in a moment like this when it seems that there are no options ...

But a winger "doesn't fit the team," I thought?
