Edinson Cavani launches scattering attack on VAR and his decisions

Manchester United striker Edinson Cavani has launched a scattering attack against the utilization of VAR innovation in football.

While talking to the South American outlet Dos De Punta, the veteran striker expressed his dissatisfaction with the technology. Manchester United’s number 7 has guaranteed that VAR is harming the “true essence of football”.

VAR has been the subject of warmed discussion and debate in pretty much every Premier League match. We have seen some truly crazy choices in regards to offsides being given this season. Edinson Cavani himself was a goal ruled out because of an incorrect VAR judgment against Tottenham Hotspur.

Scott McTominay’s hand scarcely contacted Son Heung-min’s face however the South Korean worldwide turned over the floor to acquire compassion from the official. Cavani proceeded to score the goal for the Red Devils however VAR passed judgment on McTominay liable for making a foul in the development.

According to ChiringuitoLatino, Cavani said: “VAR takes away the charm and the essence of football. You don’t know why a referee awards a penalty against you or rules you offside – or even how it works. It is difficult. You score a goal and then have to wait two minutes before you can celebrate. Or, even worse, you celebrate then they tell you it has been ruled out because your fingernail or your hair was in an offside position. Or else because one of your teammates committed a minor foul that nobody noticed – 14 passes before you put the ball in the net. Us players don’t count when things like this are brought in. It’s a case of ‘Play and keeps your mouth shut – you earn lots of money. Football is becoming a slog for us, even if there is some passion as well. You need to keep a cool head to put up with this routine for a long time.”

A player who is at the dusk of his profession would not need his goal to get chalked off as a result of some minute mistakes. The veteran striker had been connected with a move away from Old Trafford, yet he set out to settle those bits of rumours a week ago when he expanded his contract for one more year.

He would be anticipating scoring more goals on 26th May when Manchester United will conflict with Villarreal for the exotic Europa League prize.
