PICTURE

the scene. Celtic playing Rangers in a cup final at Hampden. The ball appears to go out of play before it’s crossed into the area for Antonio Colak or Kyogo Furuhashi to knock it into the net. After a lengthy check by VAR, the goal is awarded. Without stone-cold evidence supporting the decision, there would be letters to Hampden. Demands for clarification would be sent. And, let’s be honest, they’d be right. Yet here we are, at the most technologically advanced World Cup in history, and 80million Germans have still witnessed no proof whatsoever that the Japan goal which knocked them out of the World Cup was legit. Sorry, but that’s not good enough.
