I’m confused, why did the ref blow at 90 mins, 6 subs, a couple of stoppages, albeit short ones. I’ve never seen this before in my life......where was VAR when it was needed?

Because the ref was playing by infant school football rules, feeling sorry for the team losing 36-0.
No excuse, poor, but who cares?

I found it strange also but with no goal difference rule it made no difference and was fine by me.
Tracking back is overrated.
