Former Premier League referee Mark Clattenburg weighs in on Son Heung-min’s offside call against Leicester City

VAR denied Tottenham Hotspur the chance to leave Leicester City with a potential win on Saturday after Serge Aurier’s goal was ruled out while the visitors were leading 1-0.

Harry Kane had put Spurs ahead in the 29th minute, and the Ivorian right-back thought he had doubled their lead in the 64th minute after he lashed a low shot past Kasper Schmeichel into the net.

However, replays confirmed that Son Heung-min was slightly in an offside position during the build-up to the goal, and it was ruled out after a lengthy VAR check.
