Ghanas Carlos Queiroz slams World Cup VAR for missed calls in England draw: Went for coffee

Carlos Queiroz is fed up.After two potential red cards weren’t called in Ghana’s 0-0 draw with England on Tuesday, Queiroz, Ghana’s manager, slammed the VAR review system for the missed calls.“I’m not sure VAR is still working in the World Cup.We still have VAR? It’s working?” Queiroz told reporters after the match.

“I have some doubts about that because another penalty that they need to give to Ghana, a clear penalty against England [was missed].”“Once again, VAR went for coffee.It’s natural, I would like to also take my coffees once in a while, but it was a clear penalty, red card,” he added.

The first instance of Queiroz’s frustration came after 66 minutes when England’s Jordan Pickford wasn’t penalized for a collision with Prince Adu.Postgame, Queiroz said Pickford “should have been sent off, no doubt about that”.With 12 minutes remaining in the match, Ezri Konsa tackled Adu and brought him down without cleanly taking the ball.

Queiroz said it was a “clear penalty and red card” despite one not being called.“I’m sorry for my sarcasm, but if I say these kind of things seriously they punish me, so I hope you understand that I’m joking,” Queiroz said of his coffee reference.
