Technology that has found great practice in football brings positive and negative aspects, Periscopi broadcasts.

Fear of goal celebration in the event it is cancelled is a major negative aspect coming with the VAR.

In theory, though, from now on, unjust decisions must not exist that may have an impact on the outcome of the match.

Every goal now marked must be fair, each penalty accorded should be justified, each red card should be clear and no judge should be mistaken.

Of course, that is not what all of us do.

But think of all those wrong decisions over the years that could be corrected by the VAR.

One of them is Robin van Percy's red card for Arsenal vs Barcelona in 2011, often considered the worst exception in history.

In the phase of the elimination directly at ʹCamp Nou, Van Persie had scored a vital goal as a guest to equalise the score by 1-1. The Topchits advance 3-2 with general results.

Van Percy then had a golden case but failed to shoot the target out. But, a second earlier, Judge Massimo Busacca threw himself out of the game. Clearly, the Dutch did not hear the chatter inside the noisy stadium.

Inexplicably, the Swiss judge punished him for hitting the ball, leaving Van Percy shocked. Ten years later, it remains one of the worst decisions a judge has ever made.

Without the team's main star, Arsenal lost the 3-1 match, having been eliminated with a total score of 4-3. /Periscope. com/
