Tottenham insider startled by VAR following disputed moment vs Brentford.

Bryan King was left perplexed after VAR refused to intervene when Tottenham ace Guglielmo Vicario looked to touch the ball outside the box against Brentford.

The former Spurs scout feels the goalie might have been sent off.

Vicario seemed to handle the ball outside the box during Tottenham Hotspur’s 3-1 victory against Brentford on Saturday (September 21).

In an exclusive interview with Tottenham News, King questions why no action was taken.

“I was surprised by the Vicario incident,” he remarked.

“He came for the cross, but his hands were all incorrect, so he proceeded outside the box. His first touch occurred on the line. However, with his third touch, he was a yard beyond the penalty area.

“Then the Brentford player gets booked for complaining. However, VAR did little to address the issue. That was handball outside of the box, and nothing was done about it.

“Where were the people from the VAR room?” Had they gone to the restroom? I couldn’t understand why Brentford didn’t receive a free kick.

“Victorio would have been booked. However, it was possible that it was a red card, but no action was taken.

Guglielmo Vicario gets away with one for Tottenham against Brentford?

If Vicario had been sent off for his acts, the game may have shifted completely.

Spurs were just 2-1 up at that time in the game. Brentford may have battled their way back into the game if the hosts were dropped to ten men.
