Tempers flared in Glasgow as Celtic fans and manager Martin O’Neill were left outraged following a highly controversial goal in their clash with FC Midtjylland. The Danish side’s equaliser has sparked furious debate, with many claiming VAR completely failed its purpose once again.
Replays appeared to show a Midtjylland striker shoving a Celtic defender before slotting the ball home — yet the VAR team astonishingly allowed play to continue. O’Neill was visibly livid on the touchline, gesturing furiously towards the officials as fans chanted in anger.
The decision could prove costly in Celtic’s European campaign, with supporters demanding accountability from UEFA and the refereeing body. For many, this latest incident reinforces the growing belief that VAR is damaging the integrity of the game rather than protecting it.
“This is beyond a joke,” one fan summed up. “Football’s losing its fairness.”
