Who selects the proper calls to train it on?

Because it is much easier for VAR to not call the ref to the monitor, than it is for the ref to not give the penalty to PSG at PSG stadium in front of their crowd and owners.

Important to consider that a comparative situation happened earlier without VAR interference.

It is manipulative.

The ref really had one choice and that was to make the correct decision, which wasn't the right decision.

There is no way of fixing it enough. The cluster fuck and outrage at bad decisions has never been this bad.

The emotional lag is going to cost the sport a lot of viewers.
