Vinnie Jones slams lack of VAR at Swansea after controversial Manchester City turnaround in the FA Cup
Vinnie Jones believes Swansea were denied a memorable victory over Manchester City due to the lack of VAR at the Liberty Stadium.The Swans were on the verge of a giant killing when they took a shock two-goal lead against City in the FA Cup on Saturday.However, Pep Guardiolas men levelled in controversial circumstances when a soft penalty was given against Cameron Carter-Vickers, before Sergio Aguero netted an 88th-minute winner despite appearing to be in a marginally offside position.VAR had been in use during Citys third and fourth round ties at the Etihad Stadium but it was not set up for the dramatic quarter-final.Aguero broke Swansea hearts at the death2
Aguero broke Swansea hearts at the death
It’s difficult to say whether VAR would’ve overturned the foul on Raheem Sterling – Carter-Vickers appeared to get a slight touch on the ball – but it surely would have ruled out Aguero’s late diving header.And Jones, who won the FA Cup with Wimbledon in 1988, was left bemused by the lack of consistency in the competition.You cant have rules for one and rules for the other, the former midfielder told the Sports Breakfast on Monday. For me, its hard, the penalty is a hard one to call but. But I definitely think Aguero was offside for the winner.When you think back a couple of weeks ago, Harry Kanes left finger was offside when he scored that great header. Aguero was offside.Meanwhile, Arsenal legend and Sports Breakfast co-host Ray Parlour also slammed the bizarre decision to have VAR at some games but not others.
