There’s been plenty of focus on VAR and refereeing decisions since La Liga resumed, and there was more controversy on Tuesday in a game that featured three penalties and an own goal.
Marc-Andre ter Stegen saved Diego Costa’s first penalty only to see the kick retaken because VAR official Mateu Lahoz had spotted he was fractionally off his line, something that happens regularly but is hardly ever enforced.
Barcelona then won a pretty soft penalty when Nelson Semedo went to ground, but Lahoz made amends by confirming yet another spot-kick when Yannick Carrasco fell over after managing to trip himself up.
