VAR is a system where we use video replays and sensors to check four types of "match-changing" incidents: goals, penalties, red cards, and mistaken identity. The check is a silent look by the VAR, the review is when the referee goes to the screen, and the "clear and obvious" rule means we don't nitpick every minor contact. My life says the sensors for offside are precise, but the human interpretation of a "clear and obvious" error in a penalty check is where the real controversy lies—it's like looking at a wilting crop and arguing whether it was the salinity or just a dry patch.
