FNF | Saints denied by ‘controversial’ VAR call in draw at Brighton | ‘It’s an incredibly bitter pill for Southampton to swallow’
Kelly Cates presents Friday Night Football from the Amex alongside Izzy Christiansen and Steve Sidwell, who analyse Brighton and Southampton's eventful 1-1 draw. The visitors were controversially denied a winner after Adam Armstrong was deemed to have interfered with the ball in an offside position during the build-up to Cameron Archer’s second-half strike. Izzy Christiansen could understand Saints’ frustration at the disallowed goal, describing the decision as a ‘bitter pill to swallow’.There is also reaction from player of the match Tyler Dibling, goalscorer Flynn Downes, and Fabian Hurzeler. Russell Martin spoke pitchside after the game and struggled to accept the officials' reasoning for ruling their potential winner out.
