(Video) VAR misses United’s McTominay blatantly handling the ball three times in the box during Southampton clash

Posted by

VAR continues to attract controversy after footage of Scott McTominay clearly handling the ball in the penalty box was shared online.

Amazingly, the Manchester United star escaped unpunished for the incident by both the on-pitch referee and the operators at Stockley Park as the Red Devils went on to secure a second league victory in a row at Southampton.

One could forgive a single missed handball, though its difficult to understand the rationale for not advising the official on the pitch to take another look at the incident, which would have surely resulted in a penalty being awarded to the hosts.

  1. Well second one in a week offside against Liverpool one could be forgiven for thinking there’s a little bit of cheating going on AGAIN

  2. Cry just a little bit more. It was the right call. There’s nothing a player can do about a ball like that that ricochet’s off another player that is less than a foot from you. What’s funny is if the same happened to Jordan Henderson it would be a change of tune from all of you.

  3. Not once, not twice BUT three times!!!!! It does seem like there is a conspiracy working for both M@#$hester sides within Referee circles.
