The Premier League's Independent Key Match Incidents Panel has ruled the referee and the VAR were correct to award Newcastle United's winning goal against Arsenal.
I don’t even think it falls in to the “error” category. Given how late it was we can’t expect the ref to see it. It’s surely one of the very things VAR was intended for, off the ball collisions that the referee doesn’t see.
The ref didn’t see it at all. Isn’t that a clear & obvious error?
