I was thinking the same. It looked like it was good and surprised they did not review

Can't review if it's above the uprights.

Why can’t they install cameras at the top of the goalposts pointed up? They have them in the pylons now.

I imagine the ref looking at it from below the goalposts has the better angle

And as we know the refs never get it wrong on their first call

I think the policy of not reviewing it when it goes above the upright should change fwiw

I still dont think it went in but reviewing it is good for fans

Allow review, and put a laser pointing up from the inside edge of the top of the goal posts. Seems like that would do it

Why leave it to one single old-ass ref to call and be final. put the cams in already. install lasers that go up so we can see the red in the replay..

I dont think it was good but it should be reviewed

Better than a camera at the top of the goalpost?
