Tottenham manager, Antonio Conte has come out to blast damaging VAR after it ruled out Harry Kane’s winner for Tottenham against Sporting CP in the Champions League. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, the ball was clearly in front of Kane and it was a legit goal, so he doesn’t understand the line that VAR put across to arrive at its offside decision.
Conte added that VAR is very damaging nowadays, and his red card was simply absurd.
His words, “The ball was in front of Kane and the goal is a goal. I don’t understand the line that they put but it’s very difficult to comment on this decision. VAR is damaging, very damaging. I want to see if it was in another stadium or for a big team, if they are ready to disallow this type of goal. I’d like to know this,”
“All the people come inside after the decision to disallow the goal and then they came to give me the red card maybe because I was the most popular person on the pitch.”
