According to SSN today, VAR claims to have a 97% success rate.
I don’t know who decides VAR has made correct decisions and by what criteria. And as so many decisions now are subjective, whose subjectivity are they applying?
How can VAR have correctly decided in the Bournemouth v Utd game that there was no foul on Amad, but that Evanilson was fouled when the tackles on each were almost identical? To any observer, success rate there was 50%.

That’s just one game and two decisions though.

I don’t know if it’s 97% but it’s definitely higher than 50%

My issue with it isn’t the correct decisions, it’s the fact they take so long and it’s used for things it probably should be used for.

Is this like how the Japanese legal system boasts about their 99% conviction rate?

Better not look into how they got those confessions, eh?

Wait...did a PL referee actually give a foul against van Dijkhead?

Is that even allowed?

The shock on Van Dyke`s face after having a decision awarded against him was there for all to see. He`s so used to getting away with murder on the pitch, he could not believe a decision was awarded against him for once, and even tried to plead his innocence in what was a clear as day foul. Oliver did bottle another clear penalty to City with the game at 0-0 though.
