Yes, obviously I know it wasn't everyone who wanted it, but there was a sizeable majority in favour on here. And those that have been whining and wingeing about it for the last five years now have it, and I hope they choke on it.
But teams wouldn't 'waste' their referral on anything other than a goal. You'd hope the stone-wall penalties would be seen by the ref anyway. The best chance of gaining advantage for your team is to refer the goal scored against you in the hope that there is something wrong with it...
It doesn't deal with it at all. In fact it would make it even worse. Teams would save their one or two referalls for goals against them. The majority of games feature one or two goals per team. This would result in more or less every goal being refered to VAR, just as now. Pointless.
