First goal was indeed unstoppable, but never should've happened.

I'm not so sure about the second either, even with the lines he looked borderline off imo,especially his upper body / chest. With how those 'magic lines' can be drawn during VAR checks (similar to Sheffield's first goal yesterday which was somehow disallowed for half a boot length), he could easily be off. But of course no checks occurred and we'll never know, this is what bugs me.

Whenever VAR comes into play, all goals / offsides come under 200% more scrutiny, and refs are free to decide which teams are on the receiving end of such checks. If there was no sudden VAR check on azpi's potential equaliser vs pool, would it have been disallowed? Of course not, as the linesman didn't even flag for mount being 'marginally' off.

So who decides these checks? Do we need like what, more than 5 players in the ref's ear? The managers screaming at the assistants? Does the ref selectively decide what to check and what not? It's such a horrible mess with certain teams always getting them in their favour.
