'England aren't getting any justice with VAR' - Clattenburg furious with World Cup officiating

Colombia should have had a man sent off for violent conduct during their World Cup clash with England, according to the former Premier League referee

Wílmar Barrios' headbutt on England midfielder Jordan Henderson should have seen the Colombia man sent off for "violent conduct", according to referee Mark Clattenburg.

Barrios appeared to throw his head into the chest of the England star before catching his chin in the same movement, as England lined up to take a first-half free kick.

Henderson's Three Lions team-mate were visibly furious with what they felt was a clear display of violent conduct, as were England fans across social media, while referee Mark Geiger viewed the incident as worthy of a yellow card only.
