Unlike the technology's use against the Socceroos on Saturday night, it's both clear and obvious VAR and Australia are a match made in hell.
While France's penalty may well have been rightly awarded in the end, the mere hint of doubt surrounding it means the technology should not have overruled the referee's on-field decision.
Social media immediately after the decision was ablaze, and for Australians, it's a fire they are all too familiar with after the VAR was unleashed prematurely in the A-League last season.
From lengthy delays, questionable decisions and a grand final goal that shouldn't have been given - the technology failed to win Australian football fans over.
