Related, they only show one view right?
I recall that from the PL games I watched this year, and it seemed to be the same in both the US and Mexico games.
So instead of the referee getting all of the views and angles and deciding what was there, the VAR booth gives him essentially the "worst" one or maybe two - the one(s) that most support(s) a change - and then he decides whether to change based on that one or two.
Which is weird. If you want to get a call "correct" then don't you want all the information and not just the information likely to lead to a change? It practically screams out for corruption.
