went to the womens fa cup final today - very enjoyable and entertaining.
however, noticed there were a few incidents which the ref (helen conley) missed (a handball in the penalty area + what seemed to be a reckless tackle in the penalty box at the other end)
obviously a lot of us seemed to be waiting for some sort of var check, but this didn't come.
after further research - they didn't have VAR at this match.
does anyone know why women's football doesn't get VAR? baring in mind the FA released their womens football plan a couple days ago, was expecting they'd try 'level up' the game if it was to do with money.
on a side note, i'd really encourage people to go to women's football! it's very cheap but as enjoyable as a men's game and i had a good time evaluating the ref's performance with mates - just can't stop myself!
