VAR Review Allows Manchester United's Late Equaliser Against Aston Villa
English Premier League · 01:14:09 - Friday, 13 November 2026

Manchester United's last-gasp equaliser against Aston Villa survived a VAR review for a potential foul, according to BBC football issues correspondent Dale Johnson. The incident was part of a weekend of VAR decisions that have sparked debate over the system's consistency.

Johnson's incident-by-incident analysis examines whether the weekend represented a setback for video assistant referee technology in the Premier League. The United goal, scored in the dying moments, was checked for a possible infringement but ultimately stood.

The review highlights ongoing scrutiny of VAR interventions in English top-flight matches, with fans and pundits questioning the threshold for overturning on-field decisions.
