Blog of insider soccer tips
England Chief of Staff Mike Reilly has acknowledged four VAR misinterpretations that have wrongfully overturned the decisions of the Premier League fixtures in recent Premier League games. One of the most striking of them was Socrates` canceled goal, with which Arsenal could beat Crystal Palace. Martin Atkinson initially counted the hit, but after VAR intervention it was canceled due to a controversial Kalum Chambers offense. In the end, it cost two points to the Bats after the match ended 2-2.
Another misinterpretation was one of the controversial penalties that Manchester United received in Norwich`s visit. She was sentenced after VAR`s intervention over the fall of Daniel James after contact with Ben Godfrey.
The third SAR wrongdoing, according to Riley, is in the penalty that was awarded for Michael Keane`s offense against Aaron Connolly in the Everton-Brighton duel. The referee signaled for the game analyzed by live sport events to continue, but after the intervention of VAR a penalty kick was awarded.
The last situation was for Gerard Deulofeu`s penalty in the meeting with Chelsea after minimal contact with Georges.
