Former Premier League referee Keith Hackett calls for officials to be trained further in use of VAR

Former Premier League referee Keith Hackett wants further training on VAR for match officials during the international break, saying: 'The situation is untenable.' Hackett wrote in the Daily Telegraph: 'The international break has come at a good time for the Premier League's referees because they are really struggling with the video assistant referee process. Tielemans went unpunished after catching Bournemouth's Callum Wilson on the ankle which what Hackett described as 'the definition of a dangerous and reckless tackle' and 'precisely the reason VAR was introduced'. Leicester's Youri Tielemans was lucky to escape punishment after a tackle on Callum Wilson His nasty challenge was looked at by the VAR, who decided that a red card was not deserved Villa had a late Henri Lansbury equaliser disallowed after referee Kevin Friend penalised Jack Grealish for diving in the build-up.
