Before VAR, in very narrow cases, a milimeter here or there, advantage was given to the attacking team.
With VAR they even check for those milimeters, and this really is a blow to the entertainment value, and a step backward. It is nitpicking as hell. It also gives tons of free credit to the defensive dimension of football when we all know that the goals, and the offensive dimension appeal much more. This is also the reason why they used to avoid call offside in very narrow sitations prior to VAR.
I am personally dissapointed, and they have to review the usage of VAR during offsides.
Kepa needs to do better because, 7/8 times out of 10, Aguero would've punished that crazy mistake.
