SHOCKING VAR DECISION | ARSENAL vs BRENTFORD #shorts
Published at : February 17, 2023
According to the Press Association news agency, the VAR panel did not properly investigate Brentford's equaliser in their draw with Arsenal.
As Mathias Jensen whipped a free kick into the area earlier in the move, VAR assessed and cleared a potential block by Ethan Pinnock, who was positioned in an offside position, blocking Arsenal defender Gabriel.
Although Christian Norgaard appeared to be in an offside position when he provided the cross for Toney's goal, the VAR crew at Stockley Park, directed by Lee Mason, did not adequately investigate this scenario.
In September, Mason was relieved of his VAR responsibilities for a series of Premier League games after a goal by Newcastle against Crystal Palace was ruled to have been offside due to his oversight.
