FA CUP QUARTER-FINAL SWANSEA MAN CITY 2 3 (Matt...
Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola said he could not understand why video assistant referee technology was not available at Swansea City after controversial decisions had aided his side’s 3-2 FA Cup quarter-final win on Sunday morning .
Yet Championship side Swansea were left aggrieved at the awarding of two late goals to City which almost certainly would not have stood if VAR had been in operation. Yet there was no VAR to turn to for a review, with the English footballing authorities having ruled that only Cup matches at Premier League grounds would have the video technology available.“I’m sorry it was offside,” Guardiola said. “I don’t understand why VAR is not used in this competition at this stage. Hopefully, next season this won’t happen.
“After we scored the goal, we created a lot, a lot of chances, but the spirit and persistence helped us to win the game.”
