Robbed by VAR again

Don't often if ever agree with you but I do today. De Gea was never saving that regardless. Shocking decision to disallow it.

[Milltown Row2]

VAR works, we just like it when it works in your favour. The calls just need to be consistent

[imtommygunn]

The marginal offside calls don't.

[Milltown Row2]

The marginal offside calls don't.

But if all teams are being pulled on it then it does. Might not be right but...

[manfromdelmonte]

In the case of a deflection off a defender there is no offside, so var couldn't rule on that 
How could Siggurson be in the way of De Gea when the keeper is clearly going the wrong way to save the ball

Plus, it should have been a penalty for the previous tackle on Siggurson

[J70]

That was a ludicrous VAR call.

The Everton player had zero effect on the play.

[Jell 0 Biafra]

He was sitting on the ground in front of the keeper.  Had to called offside.

[SHEEDY]

In my view it was a perfectly good goal, sigurdsson wasn't interfering with de gea's sight line, de gea was going the wrong way and had a perfect view. If the goal wasn't given a penalty should have been for the challenge on sigurdsson. its unbelieveable that Everton haven't had one penalty all season.

Deflection meant it can't be offside

[Jell 0 Biafra]

If he interfered with keeper's view (which is what I thought was the basis of the VAR overrule), then he gained an unfair advantage from being offside initially, prior to the deflection.

The decision was correct.  Sadly!

Very confusing point

[J70]

He was sitting on the ground in front of the keeper.  Had to called offside.

He was completely irrelevant to the play. It was Maguire's deflection that took DeGea out. Sigurdsson might as well not have been there such was his contribution to what happened. DeGea was rooted to the spot and NEVER getting back across to make a save.

On the other hand, DeGea was owed one against Everton after the non-call at Old Trafford ( despite his weakness under the high ball).

[Jell 0 Biafra]

Why does it matter whether DeGea wasn't going to be able to make the save?
