Cardiff City owner Vincent Tan makes a Statement
Monday 1st April 2019
Neil Warnock's angry reaction to Sunday's controversial defeat against Chelsea.
Warnock was still livid on Monday morning after a series of decisions went against the Bluebirds on the way to a 2-1 defeat that seriously damaged their survival hopes. You can see how the incidents were pulled apart by the Match of the Day pundits here.
The manager has slammed referees chief Mike Riley and hit out at the standard of officiating in the Premier League after César Azpilicueta's 84th minute goal was allowed despite him being yards offside.
In a statement to talkSport host Jim White, VincentTan said:
“I fully support Neil (Warnock) on this. The goal was clearly offside. I believe VAR needs to be implemented as soon as possible so that human errors can be avoided.”
Warnock was furious after the match, staring down the match officials on live TV in the immediate aftermath of the game.
"We worked our socks off for three weeks to get where we were. We thought we could beat Chelsea and then a human error like this. It's just unbelievable. I can't describe the feeling," Warnock said.
