Fernando Llorente goal: Watch VAR award Tottenham a crucial away goal against Man City in Champions League

Fernando Llorente put Tottenham back in charge against Manchester City in their wild Champions League quarter-final second leg, with the help of a check from VAR.

In what might be one of the most high-profile and crucial moments in the history of VAR, the Turkish referee went to a screen on the side of the pitch to check whether or not the ball had come off Llorente's arm.

The slow-motion video replay appeared to show the ball may have grazed Llorente's arm on the way through to striking his hip, before diverting into the net past Ederson.

Did it hit Llorente's arm? See you what you think of VAR's decision in the video above.
