Leicester Manager Accuses VAR of Mistake
News summary

Leicester City manager Steve Cooper has accused the Premier League of using 'false images' to cover up a VAR error during their recent 2-2 draw against Crystal Palace. Cooper claims that Jean-Philippe Mateta's first goal, which was initially ruled offside but later awarded after a VAR review, was based on incorrect footage that was 'frozen' at the wrong moment. He expressed disappointment over the lack of transparency and accountability from the referees' body, suggesting that the media was misled with erroneous visuals. Despite presenting evidence to the Premier League to support their claims, Cooper stated they have not received a response or apology regarding what he termed an 'awful human error.' Leicester, still seeking their first win of the season, faces Everton next and is advocating for the implementation of a semi-automated offside system to prevent similar issues in the future.
