'VAR needs to die a slow death' - Fans outraged as Sheffield United have controversial goal ruled out against Spurs

Outraged supporters have called for "VAR to die a slow death" after Sheffield United saw a controversial goal ruled out for offside against Tottenham on Saturday.

Spurs took the lead in the Premier League clash thanks to Heung-min Son, who slotted the ball through Blade's 'goalkeeper Dean Henderson's legs in the 58th minute.

Sheffield United thought they'd found an equaliser just two minutes later, when David McGoldrick finished off a low Enda Stevens cross at the far post, but the referee called for a VAR review.

Referee Graham Scott eventually ruled that John Lundstram was offside in the build-up and the goal was chalked off, much to the fury of visiting supporters.
