How is that ever a penalty in real time, let alone after a review?

Officials gotta be in big trouble after that farce.

It's Anthony Taylor again. OK, VAR should have grown a pair and said no, but how much more trouble can he be involved in before someone starts asking questions?

Taylor loves giving it when the guy falls 2 seconds after any kind of non contact made, cost us at Preston, remove him from the game

How wasn't joelinton booked?

Oh it's Anthony Taylor

Because it's the Law, he played advantage:

That Jota penalty however is everything that's wrong with football & VAR.
In real time you can see why Taylor thinks it's a penalty but VAR has to intervene surely. The argument will be there is contact & so therefore not a "clear & obvious error" but that contact has not forced him to fall or even inconvenienced him really. What happened to "contact with consequence"?
Sums up why VAR is utterly pointless & actually damaging credibility & decision making leading to more flak for referees rather than improving it.

Might not be the game of the highest quality premier league-wise but could be a great game to watch as both Burnley and Luton will think this game is winnable!
