Thomas Tuchel admits he is struggling to accept Mike Dean apology for not sending Cristian Romero off for pulling Marc Cucurella's hair... insisting he STILL 'cannot understand' how VAR did not make the right decision

Daily Mail | August 19, 2022

Thomas Tuchel has been left unimpressed by Mike Dean admitting he made a mistake on Cristian Romero's hair pull on Marc Cucurella.

The Chelsea boss revealed he was underwhelmed by VAR official Dean's comments accepting he should have ordered a review of Romero's tussle with Cucurella in Sunday's 2-2 draw with Tottenham.

Romero pulled Cucurella to the ground by his hair before Harry Kane headed in an added-time leveller at Stamford Bridge.
