FC Cincinnati's Mitch Hildebrandt was the victim of VAR's first big mistake

A rescinded suspension tells us VAR has made its first error. Or at least failed to prevent one for the first time.

Well, this is embarrassing:

That is the USL announcing it is rescinding the suspension due Mitch Hildebrandt for his part in this incident.

It was the game-changing moment in FC Cincinnati's contest with New York Red Bulls II - and the game turned very much away from Cincy. NYRB II was awarded a penalty and 'keeper Hildenbrandt was sent off.

Scarcely 10 minutes into the match, the visitors found themselves down a goal and a man, and never really recovered.
