Ronnie O'Sullivan made rapid 147 break quicker than useless VAR took to check goal
Ronnie O'Sullivan’s record-smashing 147 break was quicker than it took VAR to check for an AS Roma offside.In the first round of the 1997 World Championship, the Essex-born snooker player cleared the table in five minutes and eight seconds - the fastest time ever to be recorded. But the amount of time it took for O'Sullivan, 46, to earn the 147 was quicker than it took a referee to work out a VAR decision.In November of last year, a for a check a possible offside for Tammy Abraham when Roma faced off against Torino took five minutes and 20 seconds, some 12 seconds longer.When Alessandro Buongiorno brought down Stephan El Shaarawy in the box with a poor tackle at the Stadio Olimpico, the home side were awarded a penalty.
