Macarthur Bulls head coach Mile Sterjovski vented his frustration with VAR as the 2024 Australia Cup champions saw their Isuzu UTE A-League top-six hopes dashed by Melbourne Victory.
The Bulls were beaten 2-1 by visiting Victory in Campbelltown on Friday night – a result that eliminated Macarthur from the Finals Series race with one round remaining.
Macarthur appealed for two penalties in the second half, one for handball and another for a foul on Marin Jakolis but neither were awarded to the eighth-placed Bulls.
“They have time to have a look at it. We saw a quick replay on the big screen and it was obvious one of them was definitely a penalty in my opinion.
“I feel like we’re wasting money on VAR each season. I hear it’s upwards of $1million each season to have.
