Mourinho: Goal-line technology doesn't make mistakes like VAR

Tottenham failed to break the deadlock at Vicarage Road but the Premier League game was not without its moments of drama

Jose Mourinho took a thinly-veiled swipe at the Video Assistant Referee following Tottenham's goalless draw with Watford, stating that “goal-line technology doesn't make mistakes like the VAR make”.

Spurs were perhaps lucky to leave Vicarage Road with any points at all after Paulo Gazzaniga saved Troy Deeney's penalty, but the visitors themselves almost had the ball over the Hornets' line later in the second half.

Small margins often decide football matches and technology has been introduced to cut down on mistakes made by officials, but Mourinho was left less than impressed by the game's officiating even with the added bonus of VAR.
