This challenge from Lundstram earned himself his marching orders in the first half of today’s early kick off. A first half exit really hampered Sheffield’s chance at a much needed 3 points. Currently sitting in 20th place in the Premier League, Sheffield United need every point they can get and every man possible on the pitch.
Commentators talked about how a few years ago this would have been a ‘tough’ challenge and now it’s a re4d card offence. When looking at the challenge in real time it seems fine but as soon as VAR slowed it down you can see just how dangerous it is. Do you think it should have been a red or was the original yellow that was given the right call?
Should VAR slow it down so much or should it be watched in real time?
