Former Arsenal midfielder Emmanuel Petit has slammed VAR for "killing the emotion" of the Gunners last-gasp winner against Manchester United on Sunday.
After a thrilling encounter where the lead swung both ways, Mikel Arteta's men secured a famous victory courtesy of a 90th minute winner from Eddie Nketiah who was on hand to guide the ball home after Martin Odegaard's shot deflected into his path. However, as with every goal scored nowadays, the strike was subject to a VAR check.
Considering how high the stakes were, those inside the Emirates were left on the edge of their seats while the team of officials in Stockley Park mulled over whether both Nketiah and Arsenal left-back Oleksandr Zinchenko had strayed offside.
