Never one for a quiet walk on the touchline, Ralph Hasenhuttl had a good scream after another death by a thousand pixels on Saturday night.
‘That’s impossible,’ he yelled, and yes, it can seem that way with VAR. He had just watched Danny Ings’ stoppage-time equaliser against Aston Villa ruled out because the lower end of his sleeve was offside, with VAR Mike Dean supporting the instinct of the assistant, Simon Long.
That one stung, as did the earlier call from Stockley Park to deny Southampton a penalty because the ball had brushed Matty Cash’s thigh before hitting his hand.
