FANS have slammed VAR as “embarrassing” after a huge seven-minute delay during Bournemouth’s FA Cup tie with Wolves.
The Cherries managed to force the ball into the back of the net from a corner via a combination of Dean Huijsen and Milos Kerkez.

Video replays showed it may have come off an arm and there also a hint of offside.
But in bizarre scenes, fans and players were left waiting a whopping seven minutes before the goal was chalked off.
At one point referee Sam Barrott led captains Nelson Semedo and Lewis Cook to the touchline for a conference with the managers.
The official then turned on his microphone and announced to the Vitality Stadium that the goal would not stand as Kerkez was offside.
Angry Bournemouth fans sang, “It’s not football anymore,’ and “This is embarrassing,’ as the delay went on.
THIS IS A DEVELOPING STORY..
