From what I saw:

- It stayed in play
- The push was iffy and the ref had a clear view of it so it's hard to call it clear and obvious error, don't think VAR should intervene on it
- I can't tell on the offside since there was no clear angle of where the ball was compared to where Gordon was, so I'll trust they got the lines right.

So yea, since it was given on pitch, I agree with it not being overturned. If the ref had called a foul for the push live, I also don't think there's a chance VAR overturned it that way either.
That's also how I see it and VAR checked for all of them too.

"no available angle" :eyeroll:
Seems kinda like a normal system would allow multiple angles to be stitched together to get the timing of the touch and the position of the lines.

Another player faking a head/face injury to get an opponent in trouble.

Such a disgrace that the PL keeps letting it happen.

Bruno playing some prison footy.

Arsenal need an enforcer haha I'm sure Bruno wouldn't have acted like that with Xhaka on the pitch.

I mean, he should definitely be off already, but that wasn't remotely worth a yellow. He reached his hand out to shield the player and then the Arsenal player acted like he got shot in the face and the referee bought it.

You missed an awful officiating performance in the Arsenal / Newcastle game.
Ouch. yeah I only came by to see if anyone knew if Copa Lib final was televised. Watched a little of Bayern x Dortmund but fell back asleep.

im sure the Arsenal fans will get the same reception that the LFC fans did if they complain about it and just get told to stop whining; not from me though. I’m on the right side of history on this one

Felt like Arsenal of a few years ago today. No creativity in the middle, instead, we just fire crosses in from the wings with no one actually trying to get on the end of them.

VAR truly lost that for the Arsenal more than Arsenal lost that.

I thought that was a brilliant match of football in all honesty, but corruption always has to spoil the fun.

Wtf did you find so brilliant about that game? There were barely any scoring chances.

I might be the only one that think it was a good goal?

It was a man's game. Not the sissy diving you find in La Liga.

It was out of touch, there's a better pictures' out there but for some reason I can't image it here. There might be a better one on Reddit, but I don't go there.
The only other pictures I have been able to find are zoomed in version of that same one.

YANITED!!! Get the f*** in!

Big physical battle against a top team. They came for a fight and got outfought.

Arsenal were in control until Havertz launched himself into a reckless and dangerous tackle, should have been off.

Arteta shitting himself in public is the cherry on the cake. Having a meltdown in the presser.

Hate to see it.

Arsenal didn’t create a thing. Solid but really offered nothing to hurt us. Was proper physical, big arm wrestle of a game.

White & Tomiyasu ultra defensive at full back, Saka with no support pocketed by Burn & Trippier, no creativity in the midfield without Odegaard and powder puff up front.

Still, always VAR to blame for Arteta’s shortcomings.
