Spurs’ 4-1 defeat to Chelsea marked by VAR interventionsTottenham manager laments lengthy decision-making
Ange Postecoglou said that VAR has made football less enjoyable after Mauricio Pochettino made an emotional return to Tottenham and led Chelsea to a chaotic 4-1 win over his old side.
Nicolas Jackson finished the hero with a hat-trick, including two goals in stoppage time. There were five disallowed goals on a wild night at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and the focus was on the officiating after Spurs, who missed the chance to return to the top of the league, ended the game with nine men. Cristian Romero was sent off after a lengthy VAR check, which left Postecoglou bemoaning the way that technology is making the game too slow.
