The Third Yellow: Delamea’s Red Card and an Indirect Problem with VAR

Okay, so by now most of you are aware of what happened on Saturday. I was there in the stadium when Silviu Petrescu called a foul against New England Revolution centerback Antonio Delamea and issued him a yellow card barely ten minutes into the game. Then he signaled for a VAR review.

And pretty much everyone knew what was going to happen. Toni was the last man, this is going to be a red card.

Now, obviously the Revs disagreed with this and appealed and the league’s Independent Review Panel unanimously overturned the call and wiped away the red card.
