VAR Blunder in City vs Everton Could Still Cost Arsenal the Title

An independent review has ruled Manchester City should have conceded a penalty after Bernardo Silva’s challenge on Everton’s Merlín Rhl during their dramatic 3-3 draw. VAR officials reviewed the incident at the time but opted not to award a spot-kick. Everton boss David Moyes slammed the decision, calling it “an absolute free-for-all.” The Key Match Incidents panel unanimously agreed there was clear, sustained holding when the corner was taken. This finding could reshape the Premier League title race. Arsenal remain in control as they chase a first league crown since 2004, with crucial fixtures against Burnley and Crystal Palace to come.
