Kenny Dalglish has gone against the crowd decrying VAR use following the 4-2 Rangers win at Motherwell and has called for even more usage.
Kevin van Veen’s opener and Todd Cantwell’s third for the Bears were allowed to stand at Fir Park on Saturday (18 March) after video reviews despite suspicions of offside in the build-up, leading Kris Boyd to decry “cheap” technology in the Scottish game [Football Scotland, 18 March], while Ally McCoist has admitted he’s changed his mind on VAR and would be happy to see it scrapped [Daily Record, 20 March].
Celtic icon Dalglish has gone the other way, praising the use of video technology, and after Rangers midfielder Todd Cantwell was heavily criticised for his reaction to Callum Slattery which led to the Steelmen midfielder being shown a second yellow, the former Scotland forward says that such incidents should now be reviewable as well.
