Fans fume as ‘absolute joke’ VAR takes more than TWO minutes to award Man City penalty after Aurier foul on Aguero

FANS were left fuming after it took more than two minutes for VAR to award Manchester City a penalty after Serge Aurier fouled Sergio Aguero.

The delay in the decision was not received well, causing more debate on whether the technology is good for the game.

After awarding the penalty, Ilkay Gundogan stepped up and missed with Hug Lloris saving his Spurs teammates.

There were calls for another penalty immediately after, with VAR checking a potential foul from Lloris on Raheem Sterling but nothing was given.

The decision to award the penalty did not go down well with Jose Mourinho who sat on the bench smirking in disbelief.

Replays showed Lloris off his line when the penalty was taken but VAR never checked that for a possible retake.

After Sterling went down, it got heated between the two sets of players with Toby Alderweireld and Oleksandr Zinchenko picking up yellow cards.
