Oliver Glasner slams controversial VAR decision as Crystal Palace beaten by Manchester United
"It is decisive when you are 1-0 up and then concede a penalty and then have one player less. The foul was outside the box and the foul should be given where it starts, not where it ends."
"We tried everything to get the equaliser and we were in good situations four or five times. A problem in the last weeks is that we are playing good parts in games but not consistently over 90 minutes."
"We always have to make changes to our back three since Marc Guehi left. There is no consistency in the back three. The way the team is fighting, even here under difficult circumstances, gives me faith until the end of the season."
Crystal Palace manager Glasner contested a VAR decision that awarded a penalty and resulted in Lacroix's red card for denying a clear goalscoring opportunity. Glasner argued the foul began outside the 18-yard box and should have been judged at its point of origin rather than conclusion. Bruno Fernandes converted the penalty, shifting the match decisively against Palace. Despite the controversial decision, Glasner acknowledged his team's efforts and identified recurring issues: fixture congestion from playing three days prior, insufficient squad depth requiring constant defensive changes following Guehi's departure, inconsistent 90-minute performances, and reduced attacking efficiency. He expressed cautious optimism about the team's fighting spirit despite difficult circumstances.
