VAR audio should NOT be released, Chelsea beat Fulham and Man United and Arsenal in Champions League action tonight
03/10/2023 Duración: 48minIt’s the story that has generated the headlines this week (and no, it’s not that it’ll be over 20 degrees in Manchester this weekend) as the commotion continues over the dubious VAR decision during the game with Spurs and Liverpool. As it stands, PGMOL are weighing up whether they should release the audio from that very moment, but just how useful and necessary would that be? Plus, we finally get to talk not only about a Chelsea victory, but a Mudryk goal as Mauricio Pochettino’s men put away Fulham to earn three points, but it wasn’t without its own talking points… And finally, the Champions League is back tonight as Manchester United look to pick up their first points of their European campaign as host Turkish giants Galatasaray, while Arsenal travel to France where they face RC Lens.
