WEST BROMWICH, England (Reuters) - Brighton & Hove Albion's Lewis Dunk said referee Lee Mason's performance in their 1-0 Premier League defeat at West Bromwich Albion was 'embarrassing' after he allowed and then disallowed a goal before the Video Assistant Referee (VAR) stepped in.

Dunk scored in the first half with a quick free kick that caught out West Brom goalkeeper Sam Johnstone but Mason chalked off the goal before reversing his decision, only for VAR to intervene and deny Brighton. "It's embarrassing, it's a horrendous decision, I said to the referee 'can I take it?' He blew his whistle and I took it. Just because there was so much pressure from the bench," Dunk told Sky Sports."I don't think he knew what he was doing. He gave the goal, why did he give it? I don't know why VAR was getting involved, he said 'goal'... you can look on the video if you want.
