The Premier will review the two goals disallowed by VAR

The Premier League will review controversial VAR decisions on Saturday in the matches Chelsea-West Ham (2-1 for Thomas Tuchel) and Newcastle-Crystal Palace (0-0) with the PGMOL refereeing staff as a matter of priority. Both moves caused enormous controversy.

Following the VAR decision, goals against Newcastle and West Ham against Palace and Chelsea were disallowed. David Moyes’ men (absolutely furious) were canceled out by Andy Madley to make it 2-2 in the 90th minute. Maxwel Cornet scored, but VAR ruled it out Jarred Bowed fouled Chelsea goalkeeper Édouard Mendy.

for New Castle, Tyrick Mitchell scored an own goal, but the ‘target’ was disallowed as VAR understood there was an earlier foul by Joe Willock on Crystal Palace goalkeeper Vicente Guaita. The truth is that Michael Salisbury disallowed the goal.

Both decisions were heavily criticized. and many argue that VAR’s role cannot be involved in overturning disputed decisions that have already been made.

World Cup referee Michael Oliver ignored VAR’s advice in a match between Nottingham Forest and Bournemouth at the City Ground, despite being asked to review a penalty decision on the pitch monitor. Instead, Oliver chose to stick with his initial decision and give Forest the penalty.
