VAR Disallows Richarlison Goal for Offside in Build-Up Against Crystal Palace

Richarlison had a goal disallowed for offside during Tottenham's Premier League clash against Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park. The Brazilian thought he had scored from close range after a cross from Pedro Porro, but the video assistant referee (VAR) overturned the decision.

The Premier League Match Centre explained on X that Lucas Bergvall was in an offside position during the build-up. Bergvall received the ball before passing it to Porro, and despite Richarlison being onside, the goal was ruled out due to Bergvall's infringement.

The disallowed goal was the first real opportunity of the match, with both teams struggling to create chances. After the decision, Palace began to assert themselves, with Jean-Philippe Mateta coming close with a right-footed effort.

Tottenham went into the interval ahead thanks to a goal from Archie Gray. The midfielder headed home from a corner after good play from Kolo Randal Muani and Richarlison to put Spurs in front.
