The most contentious VAR decisions made so far this season in the Premier League

With Spurs desperately seeking an equaliser, Watford goalkeeper Ben Foster made a mess of an 86th-minute cross that allowed Dele Alli to control the ball with his shoulder before turning it into the net. VARreviewed the goal and decided it was correctly awarded by the onfield referee, however, due to a technical issue, the big screen inside the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium indicated that the decision was ‘no goal’.
