'Ayew was lucky to escape red card' - Twitter reacts to VAR decision in Crystal Palace loss to Burnley

Football enthusiasts on social media think Jordan Ayew was lucky to escape a VAR review for a possible red card in Crystal Palace's 1-0 defeat to Burnley.

Ayew was caught to have jabbed Josh Brownhill's face in the second half of Monday's encounter but he was cleared by the Video Assistant Referee after a lengthy review of his action.

A 62nd-minute header from Ben Mee sealed a crucial away win for Burnley in south London but the Ghana international's action has got fans talking on Twitter.
