Tottenham striker Richarlison thought he scored his first Premier League goal for the club on Saturday against Nottingham Forest early in the game. A ball from Oliver Skipp was played behind the opposition defence in the lead to the goal, with the run deemed to be offside by VAR.
The decision caught plenty of decision, given how tight it was after a lengthy stoppage from the officials to ensure they got reached a conclusive choice. The chalked off goal for the Brazilian striker will have come as a blow after some fiery comments from him regarding the poor season he has had, questioning the decisions of Antonio Conte to drop him.
"First of all I watched the interview of Richarlison and he didn’t criticise me," The manager said in response. "He said my season is (swears) and he is right because his season is no good. Because he had a lot of injuries. He started well with us, he then had injury in the Champions League and then he went to World Cup and he had another serious injury. He came back and stayed one month out. Then another injury.
