The Premier League's Independent Key Match Incidents Panel has ruled the referee and the VAR were correct to award Newcastle United's winning goal against Arsenal.
Someone else pointed this out, but the 2/5 were saying they wouldn’t have gotten VAR involved, meaning they thought it wasn’t a clear and obvious error, not that they didn’t think it was red card.
The whole “clear and obvious” thing is a huge issue. Ironically, it will never have a clear definition.
Ok, but if they thought it was a red, and the ref didn’t give a red, that’s a clear and obvious error by proxy. If they didn’t think it was a clear and obvious error they cannot have thought he should have been sent off
