Another interesting watch. Reinforced the view that VAR IS checking 'normal' play leading to goals I thought, from what we heard from the officials during the games.
Sports psychologist was an interesting figure to include even though much of what he said was pretty obvious/heard before.
The most heart-breaking/fair play to you part was the story from the referee who heard, during half time of a Nations League match that his mother had passed away.
Head of refereeing obviously told him it was up to him if he carried on, and he decided to do the 2nd half - at the end of the game he was in tears - he said himself still not sure if it was right or if he would do the same again, but well done that man - that can't have been easy - understatement of the year!
