Half of the Premier League teams have experienced incorrect VAR decisions this season, with Manchester United suffering the most serious consequences. In total, the league has noted 13 errors made by VAR, an improvement from last year's 20, but teams like Brentford and Bournemouth have also faced significant grievances due to VAR interventions. Premier League officials acknowledge the stakes of each VAR error, which can cost teams points and influence managerial decisions. As VAR reviews are now quicker, the league recognizes that substantial improvements are still required in the system's accuracy and effectiveness.
We've a long way to go. Nobody underestimates the significance and the impact of one single error, which can cost clubs points, results, and managers' positions.
Dango Ouattara had a 92nd-minute winner wrongly ruled out for handball, leaving Bournemouth boss Andoni Iraola to fume: 'It's the most frustrated I've been on a touchline.'
