His legs were apart as he'd commited, as you say, never getting it.

If the keeper had thought he had any chance of getting near it, he'd have dived and then it wouldn't even be a discussion as he wouldn't have got near it, which would have proved the attacking player had no impact on him. Awful decision.
It's amazing how good the officials have been and how quick VAR decisions have been until the two games the English officials were involved in.
It was a really tricky decision and either interpretation is valid.

Stuart Atwell isn't fit for purpose.
Compare tonight's decision to the one where he allowed Bruno's goal against City when Rashford was offside by a mile and definately interfering with play.

Yep ridiculous decision. So Rashford wasn't involved by drawing the defender to him by running towards the ball as if he's about to shoot then pulling his foot back before stopping but the Dutch player was by being two metres away from the keeper, who had no chance of getting near it and didn't even dive as he wasn't set to.
Ridiculous.
I'm still utterly furious about Jack Grealish BLATENTLY taking his hand to the ball in the wall in the cup game v us
Not only did the VAR not even look at it, they never even gave a corner let alone a stoner pen

Yep, was almost exactly the same as the Odegaard one versus Liverpool. Both swiped their arms towards the ball.
Yet only one club had the balls to vote to scrap it.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Unless there's an allowance in the rules for situations where the 'keeper or defender can't reach the ball, the goal is correctly ruled out, imo. The Dutch player was interfering; the 'keeper couldn't dive in the direction of the ball because of the player standing in the way. Whether or not he'd have got the ball is moot.

Yup VAR has been working very well across all the European leagues as well. Only place that it hasn't worked well is in the PL which is an indictment on the poor standard of our refs.

It's subjective of course but I'd say the overwhelming majority would say a goal is expected there. The keeper isn't impacted as he has no chance to make the dive, which is proven in the replays. They took an age to rule it out when decisions have been made extremely quickly across all other games.
This is the kind of decision that would have been made in the PL and everyone would have been outraged about. Other leagues the goal would have been given.

Nah it wouldn’t, you’d have a mix. It’s not a PL thing at all.
