It doesn't get shown to him if the VAR doesn't see an issue with it. He didn't. I'm with the onfield ref and the VAR on this one. It was a good tackle, no foul.

Can't comment on the challenge, can't remember it. But, is it a challenge that happened before the Man City corner than lead to the winner? If so, VAR couldn't do anything anyway even if they thought it was a foul, because the ball had gone out of play and put back into play since then. Only way they could have got involved is if they thought it was worth a red card (which obviously isn't the case from what the discussion is)

Agreed and the keeper did nothing wrong but this will keep going round and round.we’ll agree to disagree, not in a million years was Jones trying to nutmeg the keeper.
The issue of a keeper diving at a players feet and them running into the keeper is a mess and the poor keeper has no chance. If he feels he has to come out and spread himself AND touches the ball first why do penalties get given when the attacker then runs into the outstretched arm. The keeper isn't being reckless but making a save

It wasn’t a foul and it was also at the very least 4 phases previously so not part of the phase when the goal was scored

Nutmeg is a deliberate action

Nope, went under his knee as he went down, a thousand miles away from being a nutmeg.
And you know that, you know exactly what a nutmeg is, now stop it.
You're obviously not talking about the same game as me then.

It definitely wouldn't have been brought back for that, as previously mentioned it was a few phases before.

Which tackle/foul are you talking about ?
He got the ball very cleanly without going to ground
At first I thought it was a foul but seeing it again it was very clean
If you spent less time arguing and going round in circles you would know exactly what i am talking about. It is very clear.
Ah, fair enough. I was talking about the Wolves v Man City game from yesterday. Dull game, you didn't miss much.

And which foul in the lead up to the goal

VAR did show the interaction between the two
it was part of review that the ref watched at the screen
