Coventry City manager Frank Lampard criticized the video assistant referee (VAR) after his side's defeat to Everton, highlighting three key decisions that he felt went against his team.
Lampard was particularly incensed by an incident in which an Everton player appeared to pull the hair of a Coventry player, which he believed should have been punished. The match, played on November 7, 2026, ended in a loss for Coventry.
Speaking after the game, Lampard rued the VAR's involvement, stating that the decisions had a significant impact on the outcome.
