Belgium's early exit from the World Cup was confirmed by their goalless draw with Croatia on Thursday.With seven points, Morocco leads Group F, followed by Croatia with five points.
They were perplexed as to why the technology did not inform viewers of its decision.
On Thursday night, Japan overcame a 1-0 deficit to defeat Spain 2-1. Both teams advanced to the next round of the competition, while Germany and Costa Rica would have to wait four years.
On 51 minutes, Japan added their second goal when Kaoru Mitoma crossed for Ao Tanaka.
The goal was initially disallowed because the center referee thought it had rolled out for over. However, video replays showed that it was very close and that VAR overturned the referee's decision and ruled that the goal had not gone out.
However, Souness and Neville are perplexed as to why neither they nor the viewers were shown the best angle.
"A goal was disallowed, and VAR has observed something that we haven't seen anywhere else, not even in this studio.
Neville stated on ITV, "We can't get an angle of what the VAR officials have seen."
Souness continued,Each TV studio, each savant, every individual who has an interest in this World Cup will be needing to see the image.
"The pictures we've seen make it appear as though the ball has gone out, and it looked like it to us in real time."
“Why are FIFA not showing us something that is so controversial?” Germany was one of the nations widely predicted to win the World Cup in Qatar; however, they have now joined Belgium, the second-ranked men's national team in the world, in withdrawing from the competition.
