Video Assistant Referee causes controversy every week in the Premier League .

Ipswich Town were awarded a penalty in the 10th minute when Liam Delap went to ground under a challenge from Chelsea goalkeeper Filip Jørgensen .

Brighton & Hove Albion forward João Pedro was pulled back by Yehor Yarmoliuk on the halfway line in the 75th minute.

Brighton 's João Félix's goal for offside took two minutes and 41 seconds from the goal to referee John Brooks ruling it out.

Premier League's Key Match Incidents (KMI) Panel voted on a split 3 -2 decision that no red card was correct on field, and 4-1 for no VAR intervention.

Dejan Kulusevski escaped a red card when his elbow connected with the head of Romeo Lavia earlier this month .

Pedro had a more obvious striking motion, and would have caused far more damage to Yarmoliuk had he connected.

We shouldn't be trying to guess judgement over luck with this kind of action.

VAR offside checks on Liverpool goals seem to take an age -- a total of three minutes from the goal being scored to the referee signalling it would stand.

Both were correct on-field, and while subjective checks have become quicker it's still these lengthy offside decisions which sap the life out of games.
