The decision to disallow Manchester City's late goal against Tottenham was correct, Dermot Gallagher said on the latest Ref Watch.
It is only the second weekend of the Premier League season and VAR is already making its presence felt, with more incidents for Gallagher to analyse and explain.
Read on to see what he said about some of the big refereeing moments of the weekend...
INCIDENT: With the score 2-2, Gabriel Jesus thought he had scored the winning goal in the 93rd minute. However, after a VAR review, the goal was ruled out as the ball touched the arm of Aymeric Laporte on the way through, much to the dismay of the home contingent.
DERMOT'S VERDICT: Correct decision.
DERMOT SAYS: "As much as people debate, yes it is [the right decision], because you see that it strikes Laporte's arm. The minute that happens, it can't be a goal and for two weeks running, VAR has picked that up post-decision and it is given correctly.
"We saw three handball goals in the Premier League last year - Willy Boly [against Man City], Sergio Aguero [against Arsenal] and Nathan Redmond [against West Ham] - and everybody thought that it wasn't acceptable. Everybody had this notion that you can't have a goal scored by the hand or the arm so the law was brought into place by IFAB (International Football Association Board) for the start of the season.
"Unfortunately, over the last two weeks, I view it as a consequence of the decision. It was made in good spirit and for the right reasons and I don't understand what the confusion is because the rule is quite clear. It might not be what we like but it is quite clear. It is there for the rest of the season because they will never change mid-season but it is consistent. It's not longer a matter of opinion or subjective. The referee each week will make the same decision."
INCIDENT: Earlier in the game, Erik Lamela bundled Rodri over in the box, with the Man City midfielder falling to the floor. Referee Michael Oliver did not give a penalty and the decision was not reviewed by VAR.
DERMOT'S VERDICT: Correct use of VAR process.
DERMOT SAYS: "At the time, I wasn't convinced that it was a penalty. The more I see it, the more I'm leaning towards it being one. The dilemma there is that the referee didn't think it was a penalty and he would have fed to the VAR team what he had seen and why he's come to that conclusion. The dilemma is not whether it is a penalty or not, it is that VAR cannot do anything about it.
"Of the two incidents, one is factual and the other is subjective. That's the problem. In a subjective decision, you are always going to have this gap where one person thinks one thing and another person thinks something different. On the day, the referee didn't think it was a penalty and the VAR didn't think it was a penalty so he fed to the referee that he should play on, which is what they did."
