The loss in the London derby, for Conte, VAR is to blame: it does not work

Arsenal managed to win the London derby, as they beat Tottenham 3-1 in a match where there was no shortage of spectacle and emotions at the "Emirates Stadium".

After this match, coach Antonio Conte was very disappointed for the first defeat in the Premier League this season, while he did not hesitate to blame VAR for this defeat.

"To be honest, in England this part of VAR is a bit difficult because the same standard is not used from match to match. Sometimes there are moments when a red card is needed and a yellow card is awarded, or sometimes when it is a yellow card, no penalty is given.

The referees have to work hard in this aspect, in Italy the referees meet every Thursday and watch videos as a way to improve. I don't know if something like this applies in England, but it's a good idea. Here the level of football is very high and so should be the judgment or the VAR.

Every decision during the match should be the best one possible. The red card "killed" the match, they scored the third after that," Conte said about the VAR part.

The Italian coach also spoke about the part of the match, saying that everything was difficult for them in the confrontation with the Gunners.


"Arsenal were a very attacking team and we found it difficult to defend against them. If there's anything I can complain about, it's the first half, where we could have done more and we made a few mistakes on the last pass.

The match was not balanced and then the second half started with a goal for them, we could have done a lot more with every goal we conceded. But, then came the second card, that's where the match ended", declared the Italian coach.
