Watching the semi's I get the feeling we are starting to see the real benefit of VAR. The good refs are able to ignore it when players go down easy in a tackle etc. trusting that VAR will have their back if they miss something outrageous. And as much as it could be argued that technically England could have been awarded a penalty I think they should be awarded for the much more blatant fouls.

On that note, if the ref does 'let them play' I think the French team could implode from a discipline perspective.
