'VAR worked well until today' - Aguero hits out at 'incredible' decisions in Argentina defeat

Argentina striker Sergio Aguero has hit out at the refereeing decisions during his side's Copa America semi-final defeat to Brazil, claiming VAR was at fault for the Selecao's second goal.

With the hosts 1-0 up through a goal from Aguero's Manchester City team-mate Gabriel Jesus, the Argentine looked to be tripped by Dani Alves inside the Brazil box in the 70th minute.

Referee Roddy Zambrano waved away the Albiceleste's appeals for a penalty, with Brazil able to launch an attack of their own which ended in Roberto Firmino making it 2-0 and all but ending the tie.
