Lampard says overturned pen 'like human VAR'
Derby boss Frank Lampard says the decision to overturn a penalty for his side in their play-off semi-final was like 'human VAR'.
Referee Craig Pawson initially gave a penalty when Jayden Bogle went down under a challenge from Jack Harrison, only to reverse the decision and award Leeds a free-kick after appeals from the away side and consulting the linesman.
Speaking to Sky Sports, Lampard said: "I'm not sure if it's a penalty - I think it's one of those you can get or not get.
"The referee gave it, but the linesman has decided it was clear enough to not be a penalty.
"It's like human VAR, but with the actual VAR, the only way they turn decisions, as you hear from the rules, is if it's a clear and obvious challenge. It wasn't - I can't understand it."
Promoted sides to tussle over Maupay
The Evening Standard report that Neal Maupay's performances mean he should be a target for the sides who have been promoted to the Premier League and whoever wins the play-offs.
The Frenchman racked up 25 goals in the Championship last season - topped only by EFL Player of the Year Teemu Pukki.
A fee of £20m is being touted for the striker - who cost the Bees just £1.6m in 2017.
