Jack Grealish calls to 'get rid' of VAR as Aston Villa captain labels technology 'borderline embarrassing' after Villans are denied a late equaliser against West Ham for offside

Jack Grealish has called to 'get rid' of VAR after Aston Villa were controversially denied a late equaliser in their dramatic 2-1 defeat to West Ham at the London Stadium.

The Villans attempted to muster a fightback after Jarrod Bowen put the hosts ahead at the start of the second half with a deft header but were unable to score the all-important leveller.

Grealish, 25, had evened the scores in the first half with a fine individual goal after Angelo Ogbonna opened the scoring with a powerful header in just the second minute of the game.
