ESPN VAR Review Examines Rice Red-Card Question From Brighton Clash
A regular ESPN column breaking down Premier League VAR calls looks at whether Declan Rice should have been sent off during a match at Brighton, according to the outlet.
ESPN has published its latest Premier League VAR review, a recurring feature in which the outlet examines contentious video assistant referee decisions from recent matches, according to ESPN.
The piece is written with input from Andy Davies, described by ESPN as its "resident ref," who explains how VAR decisions are reached during Premier League fixtures, the outlet said.
Among the incidents highlighted in the review is a question over whether Declan Rice was fortunate to avoid a red card during a match at Brighton, ESPN reported. The publication did not provide further detail on the specific incident in the material reviewed.
ESPN's VAR review columns typically address a range of contested calls from the Premier League weekend, including issues such as penalty decisions, handball calls, goal-line technology and other refereeing matters, according to the outlet.
ESPN did not immediately provide additional details on the outcome of the Rice incident or other specific calls covered in the review.
