and the game is not being refereed remotely. However, it’s so rare for a referee to look at the screen and stick to the original decision that it renders the whole time-consuming process pointless.

I thought it was a foul on the goalie, and only needed one look. That it took several minutes and about 30 replays to decide is utterly ridiculous. There should be a time limit for VAR, because anything that takes that long to decide isn’t clear and obvious.
