Former Premier League referee Keith Hackett has claimed Lee Mason deserves to be sacked after his blunder during Arsenal vs Brentford.
Mason is facing intense scrutiny over his position as a dedicated VAR after he failed to sufficiently investigate the controversial Bees equaliser. Arsenal had taken the lead through Leandro Trossard, before Ivan Toney nodded home following a scramble less than 10 minutes later.
But replays showed that Christian Norgaard was in an offside position when he headed the ball back across for Toney to score. The goal was allowed to stand despite an arduous VAR check which lasted more than three minutes.
