What if Luis Garcia’s 'ghost goal' wasn’t given against Chelsea in 2005?

If Blackburn Signed Zidane

Available for over a year

If Blackburn Signed Zidane is back for Season 3, looking back at football’s greatest ‘what if’ moments and diving into the multiverse to put things right on the timeline. In episode one, host Specs Gonzalez is joined by co-host Tego Sigel and returning guest Savage Dan to ask ‘What if Luis Garcia’s 'ghost goal' wasn’t given against Chelsea in 2005?’ Since the introduction of VAR we've seen so many great goals ruled out. But what if VAR had been introduced earlier? Specifically in 2005 when Luis Garcia scored the only goal to put Liverpool through to the Champions League final. Would that goal have stood and would that famous night in Istanbul have ever happened? As always Specs has all the answers inside the world of his imagination. Host: Specs Gonzalez Co-host: Tego Sigel Produced by: Alpha Barrie. A Folding Pocket production for BBC Sounds.
