With VAR there is no paradise. And without VAR, either
. Experience indicates that soccer lives with error with or without the presence of the Video Assistant Referee. And also that technology is managed by human beings, with different criteria, subjectivities and visions. Everything seems strengthened after the scandal experienced in the series between Boca and Atlético Mineiro. Without the level of the controversy generated in the Copa Libertadores series,
this Sunday at the Monumental a new situation arose to analyze. And the usual question: What would have happened to River's goal if the presence of VAR existed in Argentine football?
Hard to know ...
The thing is that, after a Union corner, the Santa Fe team was badly stopped and River handled the ball with the precision that Gallardo seeks.
The Millionaire came out fast and direct, the Tatengue defense managed to clear a ball that was looking for Romero and Zuculini took the ball.
The exRacing, put a filtered pass for Carrascal that did what the play requested: I looked for direct foot to the far post where the man of the moment, Braian Romero, entered.
The former defender passed and the Uruguayan De La Cruz took the last ball and put it back in for Romero who with a great movement turned and nailed the ball on the roof of the goal.
Was there offside at the start of the play?

There was Romero offside at the beginning of the play and everything suggests that with the inclusion of VAR River's goal would have been advanced.
Yes, an advanced VAR position.
But later, when De La Cruz makes the back pass, Romero comes back from offside so the play would have been canceled.
After the goal, River flourished against Unión and showed an overwhelming superiority by converting goals of great invoice.
Obviously, the question remains as to what would have happened if the play was canceled.
Also, how the VAR would have acted.
The arrival of the VAR to Argentine soccer had been announced for the third date that begins to be played next Tuesday.
However, the AFA and the clubs did not take long to agree.
What is the conflict?
The six hundred thousand pesos per party that the service would cost.
And who would pay: the AFA or the clubs.

He caught it badly standing!
From a Union corner, River put together a great play and ended it with a center behind Suárez for Romero's goal.
