Spurs manager Postecoglou laments VAR’s impact after Chelsea defeat

ANGE POSTECOGLOU LAMENTED that VAR has diminished the authority of referees after he watched nine-man Tottenham lose 4-1 to Chelsea.

Even with nine men the hosts continued to take the game to Chelsea and were well in the contest before Nicolas Jackson twice sprung their high line in stoppage time to add his team’s third and fourth goals and complete an unlikely hat-trick. Advertisement Spurs’ night was compounded by the loss of James Maddison and Micky van de Ven to injury, on top of what is likely to be a three-game ban for Romero.

“I don’t like it. I don’t like the standing around, the whole theatre around waiting for decisions. But I know I’m in the wilderness on that. “People are going to forensically scrutinise everything to make sure they’re comfortable it’s right, and even at the end of that, we’re still not happy.
