THERE have already been nine mistakes this season in the Premier League by VAR.

And fans are growing even more impatient with the officiating after Saturday’s horror show between Tottenham and Liverpool.

Here SunSport breaks down all nine of the mistakes that VAR have accepted they’ve made this season.

Onana clash – Man Utd v Wolves

In game week one, the Premier League officials made their first error of the new campaign during Man United’s 1-0 win over Wolves.

Andre Onana wiped out Sasa Kalajdzic in the box after coming up to claim a cross.

Referee Simon Hooper said no penalty and VAR agreed, only for the PGMOL to issue an apology after the game saying that both decisions were wrong.

Szoboszlai penalty – Liverpool v Bournemouth

Dominik Szoboszlai was brought down in the area by Joe Rothwell and Liverpool were awarded a penalty.

Mohamed Salah missed the spot-kick, but it turns out that it should’ve never been a penalty in the first place.

Mac Allister red card – Liverpool v Bournemouth

As if one mistake in one game wasn’t enough, the refereeing bosses admitted another one in the Liverpool v Bournemouth clash.

Alexis Mac Allister was dismissed with a straight red card for a reckless challenge on Ryan Christie after a VAR check.

Only for an apology to follow and the red card to be retrospectively overturned after the officials got it wrong.

Akanji offside – Man City v Fulham

Nathan Ake bagged a goal for the Cityzens in their 5-1 win over Fulham.

But it should never have stood with Manuel Akanji clearly in an offside position and in the line of sight of Bernd Leno.

Havertz penalty – Arsenal v Man United

Kai Havertz was taken down in the box by Aaron Wan-Bissaka during Arsenal’s 3-1 win over Manchester United.

Referee Anthony Taylor pointed to the spot, but VAR overturned the decision after deeming it incorrect.

However the on-field call should have stood as the initial decision by Taylor was not a clear and obvious error.

Berge handball – Nottingham Forest v Burnley

Burnley’s Sander Berge committed a “handball” in the build up to Lyle Foster’s winner.

Much to the Clarets’ frustration it was then ruled out by VAR after a lengthy review and the game ended in a 1-1 draw.

After the match it was declared that the officials got it wrong and Berge’s control of the ball was totally legal.

Ref’s rejection – Aston Villa v Crystal Palace

Referee Darren England made the decision to ignore VAR’s recommendation to award a penalty to Aston Villa.

Ollie Watkins had been brought down by Curtis Richards and the officials at Stockley Park told England they thought it was penalty.

In a landmark moment, England viewed the monitor and decided he disagreed with his colleagues and didn’t award the spot kick.

Refereeing officials have since acknowledged that a penalty should have been awarded and England was wrong to go against them.

Diaz offside – Tottenham v Liverpool

Luis Diaz slotted a superb finish into the bottom corner to put Liverpool 1-0 up against Spurs, but the flag went up and the Colombian’s effort was ruled out for offside.

VAR checked to see if the on field decision was correct and despite seeing that Tottenham’s Cristian Romero was playing Diaz onside, told the referee the check was complete.

The “substantial human error” saw the goal disallowed despite there being no reason to rule it out.

Tottenham went on to win the game 2-1 against a nine-man Liverpool side.

Turner penalty – Nottingham Forest v Brentford

Brentford forward Yoane Wissa nicked the ball away from Forest keeper Matt Turner in the box.

In an attempt to clear the ball Turner clattered the Bees midfielder and brought him to the ground.

No penalty was awarded, but it’s now been accepted as a mistake and Brentford should have had a chance from 12 yards.

Fans have vented their frustrations with the officiating so far this season and many have even called for Liverpool’s matchup against Spurs to be replayed after Saturday’s error.

Some supporters took to social media to let it be known what they think about the way that games have been refereed this term.

One wrote: “VAR is doing more damage than good…”

Another added: “Who cares about apologies? Do better!”

And a third chimed in saying: “Pathetic! They can take as long as they like to rewatch something back and still get it wrong.”
