Fulham Secures Dramatic Win Over Wolves Amid VAR Controversy

Wolves Manager Gary O'Neil Criticizes VAR Decisions, Claims Technology 'Cost' His Team

  • Willian's two penalties, including a 94th-minute winner, helped Fulham secure a 3-2 victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers in a Premier League match dominated by VAR decisions.
  • Wolves manager Gary O'Neil expressed his frustration with VAR, stating that the technology had 'cost' his team and was negatively impacting his reputation and the club.
  • O'Neil claimed that referee Michael Salisbury admitted to making a mistake in awarding Fulham's first penalty, and argued that Fulham's Carlos Vinicius should have been sent off for a headbutt.
  • The win, Fulham's first in five league games, moved the team up to 14th in the Premier League standings, level on points with Wolves.
  • This match marked the second time a league game has had three second-half penalties scored, after Everton vs. Newcastle in September 2003.
