- VAR under spotlight after Premier League gaffe
- Pulisic doesn’t want VAR in football
- Is okay with Goal Line Technology
WHAT HAPPENED? Last weekend, the Premier League suffered from a flurry of instances that saw the refereeing decisions during Liverpool’s 2-1 loss to Tottenham Hotspur. Pulisic believes that if the technology can’t make 100 percent correct decisions, they should eliminate it.
WHAT THEY SAID: “Eliminate it completely. I don’t mind the Goal Line Technology at all, I think it’s great in my opinion but other than that I know its one of those things where if it goes for you, you love it. If it’s against you, you hate it. But, just, overall as a fan, I just think we’re better off without it.” said the American [via Men In Blazers].
THE BIGGER PICTURE: PGMOL apologized to Liverpool after the game but coach Jurgen Klopp spoke about apologies not changing the results and costing teams because of it. However, VAR will continue to stay in the spotlight as long as it is in the game.
