The challenge by Matty Cash on Daichi Kamada was a poor challenge and deserved a red card. Cash comes in with speed and catches his opponent with his studs above the ankle, which could have risked a bad injury. This should have been a red card, and again, I cannot understand what the VAR is looking at when it comes to these types of challenges.

Real Madrid remain unhappy with LaLiga's refereeing, a club source has told ESPN, after a weekend which saw them have three goals disallowed. Meanwhile, rivals Barcelona and Atlético Madrid both benefitted -- according to Madrid -- from controversial decisions involving VAR. Madrid beat Mallorca 2-1 at the Bernabéu on Saturday, despite Kylian Mbappé having two goals ruled out for offside, and Arda Güler having an effort disallowed for handball.
