Looks like the article has been corrected. It now says "but on a split 3-2 decision for the VAR to get involved." That suggests they all personally thought it was a red, but only 2 out 5 thought a yellow was a clear and obvious error

He didn't get a yellow for the elbow, he got a yellow in the 88th minute for shoving Vieira in the face.

So actually 2 of the 5 thought giving him nothing for purposely elbowing an opponent in the back of the head was not a clear and obvious error.

I forgot Guinarares didn't get a yellow, but that doesn't change the main point.

The fact that no yellow was given was (probably) because the on field ref didn't see it. However VAR can't intervene to give a yellow. So the question is whether it was a clear and obvious error to not give a red. And 2 out of 5 thought no.

Anyway, I've had enough of this discussion. Everything has been laid out, if you don't accept it, then you don't.

He didn't even give a foul let alone a yellow. If that's not clear and obvious I don't know what is. They need to let the VAR just talk to the ref more like in Rugby
