KRC Genk star Samatta after disallowed Liverpool goal - 'I am not lucky with VAR'

The Tanzanian captain reveals his heartache with the use of VAR after his disallowed goal against the Reds in the Champions League

Tanzanian striker Mbwana Samatta claims he is not lucky with the video assistant referee (VAR) after his goal was disallowed against Liverpool.

Samatta, who turns out for Belgian outfit KRC Genk, rose the highest to head home a cross against the Reds but the goal was ruled out by the referee and his side went on to lose 4-1 at home.

Samatta has now revealed he was not lucky since three of his goals have also been rejected by VAR so far.
