Hope the club were punished severely for this.

The video is about halfway down

Could have been about 5/6 red cards looking at it. The first before he ever got to monitor when he was soaked with water.

He remained composed though

Composed but completely ineffective.  The problem here was not VAR but the failure to award a clear free kick and red card in the first place and the indiscipline of the red team and staff.  At least VAR ensured the right outcome.

Its good to see that the introduction of VAR has eliminated controversary and dissent from the game.   ;)

Hope the red team get a hefty punishment

They also should be booted out of next year’s competition as an absolute minimum....

Disgraceful.

For the managers actions to the opposition fans, he should have been arrested. I hope he gets a "year off" from football - anything lower is a disgrace.
