An amateur ref has said this

‘There was no clear and obvious evidence that contradicted what the assistant referee said he thought happened so no ground for VAR to recommend a review.’

But don’t buy that at all. Surely the VAR isn’t confirming with the lino that he saw Godfrey was offside and then saw him challenge the ball
