Pickford and the VAR repeat

At the time of the Everton-Manchester United game, controversy once again surrounded Pickford and the VAR. The Everton goalkeeper knocked out Van Dijk a few weeks ago with a dangerous tackle that was not even valued by the VAR. No penalty or penalty for the goal, which caused a huge controversy in England. Liverpool felt terribly damaged in a match that ended 2-2. The VAR was singled out for failing to warn the referee or review the action.

At Everton-Manchester United, Pickford and VAR have re-offended and the controversy has returned. In this case, luckily, it did not influence the score, as United ended up winning by 1-3. But at the time of the game with 1-2 on the scoreboard, the Everton goalkeeper went looking for a ball overhead and screwed up. United captain Maguire was looking for the dead ball, but came across Pickford's dangerous tackle. The goalkeeper lunged desperately on the defender, kicking him. Immediately came to mind the entry about Van Dijk a couple of weeks ago that cost the Dutchman a serious knee injury.

But nevertheless, Paul Tierney did not report anything or was notified by the VAR. No penalty or penalty for Pickford. Finally, Cavani scored the third goal and that helps that the action is not as taken into account as the one that left Van Dijk out for a long time. This time, there was no harm to regret.
