Strange that the handball by the Brentford player wasn't looked at in more detail (when KDH was through on goal).
Commentator saying the player didn't see it....man, it's travelled 30+ meters!
Not necessarily a 'clear denial of a goal scoring opportunity' as KDH's 360 did that
Its a weird 1. Can they give advantage via VAR. If not its kind of a double punishment in that we got the chance and then potentially the free kick and red for denying a goalscoring chance we actually had

Don’t think we were barely in the game according to the irritating Andrews or motd
Put it down to bitterness over losing the points so late on, he's pretty level headed usually.
They just about edged it I think but even in the second half where he thinks they dominated for 35 minutes, we had the KDH one on one and Ndiaye's deflected effort.
Xg wise: Brentford 2.26 - 1.57 Everton
Given 0.76 of that was a first minute penalty, there wasn't too much in it really.
6 points won with goals in the last ten minutes of our last four away games.
Probably isn’t sustainable long term and you would want more control and improvement, but the first year of moyes was always going to be about making us more competitive and tough to play against and it’s all on show.
Love how KDH went straight to the centre circle after the goal to try and win the game.
The mentality of the manager and the players this season has been so on point.
90% of football in this league is just about staying in the game and making the most of your moments and we have a manager in moyes who fully understands how to compete at this level.
Loved watching us away from home this season. We haven’t put in a bad performance. Even when we haven’t been that good we’ve come away with a draw or a win.
Yeah i really loved that celebrations were quick from the players, wanting to get a winner. Thats really amazing to see and what a fucking massive change in attitude this season.
Im terrified for Sunday but also, i cant fucking wait.

Also Beto's offside miss won't count towards XG even though he may have been on. I think because they hit the bar twice it may have felt like they should have been out of sight but it was an even match.

Thought the handball actually made it easier for KDH so a noncall was correct.
Does anyone know if var can make a decision on advantage. Had that been a clear obvious deliberate handball would it have automatically been pulled back for a free kick and red even though had the ref seen it he might very well have played advantage anyway
If var cant give advantage after the fact it actually means you get both the advantage and then the decision should you make nothing of the advantage
