What happened. After Brentford's 2-1 Carabao Cup win at Reading, head coach Keith Andrews said VAR is stopping referees from making decisions. He wants officials to be allowed to referee and be human.

Reading had a Paudie O'Connor overhead kick ruled out for a high boot.
Royals boss Leam Richardson called it among the worst decisions he has seen.
No VAR was in use at this stage of the EFL Cup.

“I think we just need to let them ref the game and be human beings and make decisions.”
— Keith Andrews

His comments came after Pro Ref admitted an error over Erling Haaland's winner for Manchester City at Manchester United.
