Mohamed Salah has delivered his verdict on VAR as the implementation of the new technology continues to divide opinion.
The Video Assistant Referee (VAR) system is now being used across the Premier League with mixed reviews after controversy over its usage in the opening two weekends of the new season.
Gabriel Jesus' would-be winner against Tottenham on Saturday evening was chalked off via VAR after Aymeric Laporte was adjudged to have handballed the ball in the build-up to the goal while other incidents have hit the headlines.
Salah believes authorities were too quick to bring in the system.
"I don't like it ... that's my answer, always. I don't like it," Salah told CNN. "I love football how it is.
"It's like that with the mistakes of the referee, with the aggression from the player sometimes.
"It's OK sometimes to protect the players from dangerous play. But OK, that's it, in my opinion, that could be the only reason that happened, just to protect the players.
"But for me, I accepted the football with the mistakes of the referee, mistakes of the player, I don't know, whatever.
"That's how the football gets more excited."
