In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
Boating clipped him before he took the shot.
Seemed a pen to me.
Dr. Joe calls it again.
He pushed him as he was taking the shot so affected his aim. It's a penalty. It wasn't even a gentle push. It was a right shove in the back.
Good point. The legs were even blatant in terms of fouling
... He's on the ground because he's tripped him up!?
Am I the only one seeing that that is way more then a push!?
It was a clear penalty. There was more than just a push.
Slow non-defending Boateng with a good block.
Yep, VAR observers should resign.
So when is 'clear and obvious' not clear and obvious? It's a dog's dinner.
Build up is too slow. Germany should drop back a bit to open up space and then try to break fast.
With each passing minute, this control and hogging possession game is going to get more and more difficult. This works after you are a goal ahead.
Teams are too well organised nowadays.

Never trust a bald ref. Bald chef, yes. Accountant, absolutely. But never a ref.
Are the commentators fecking blind ? Why don't they see Boateng not only pushing him but tripping him too
On the ground already? Eh? He was on the ground after he was pushed over. Think you need to get your eyes checked
Not clear / obvious either way in real time viewing with one look though is it?
He pushes him and then trips him 
That was the clearest penalty of the tournament, terrible by VAR

VAR check it. If they think it should be a penalty they recommend to the referee that he review it.
So either VAR didn't recommend a review or the referee ignored their recommendation.
As obvious as any other pen this comp. feck knows what the VAR fellas are watching.
Germany looking shaky and it’s so weird to watch. Looking alright in attack but the defence look all over the shop, and this Rudy guy really does look poor.

It's better than not having it. Can't get 100% correct.What about Collina
VAR bottled it
Wats the use of VAR if such decisions are not referred
Because thet want Germany to progress
What are you on about, seriously?
Good chance he ignored. Same ref as Argentina v Iceland when the ref seemingly ignored blatant decisions. Cant blame VAR when a ref refuses to use it.
Well, feck. I take it all back.
Thank the Lord we have VAR for a 2nd viewing then
Of course, but in those situations they should 100% stop the game after the ball goes out of play and check the situation. Absolute bs the way they are doing it now.
another shite call from right said fred
Marcus Berg always falls over when shooting though. Sure, he was hit on the feet and shoved above that, but not doing so wouldn't have made a difference.
The ref got it 100% right once one considers that. Boateng so lucky! That would have been a pen and red in the old days.

They probably don’t think it was one and I agree. There was no leg contact (so it doesn’t matter where Boatengs leg was) and that back contact was never, ever a pen.
Terrible by VAR, or this ref who in his 2nd game now is blatantly refusing to use VAR (Argentina vs Iceland the other game)He pushes him and then trips him
That was the clearest penalty of the tournament, terrible by VAR
So now players know they can wrestle players to the ground, group wrestling even better, also you can shove players in the back and there will not be a penalty given.
you can't seriously believe that?Good defending from Sweden there
He totally dominated Muller there.
Isn't he the one in charge of these refs or something?
Same ref? Quite interesting.
Or they didn't think that the ref missing it was a "clear mistake". That's the restriction the VAR ref is working under. They aren't allowed to correct borderline mistakes.
