VAR should have intervened and awarded Sheffield United a goal after HawkEye malfunctioned and failed to detect Aston Villa goalkeeper Oerjan Nyland carrying the ball over the line.
Officials need to stop acting like robots and take ownership because a human being has to make the final decision, although I attach no blame to referee Michael Oliver in this instance.
Rather, if the goal-line technology has clearly failed, then VAR Paul Tierney needs to tell Oliver, 'Stop, it was a goal'. Or at the very least they should pause and take a closer look at all of the available angles - do that and you quickly realise it's a goal.
