Lazio coach Simone Inzaghi: VAR has cost us 7 points

Lazio coach Simone Inzaghi is fed up with video technology.

Inzaghi believes the video assistant referee (VAR) system has cost Lazio seven points in Serie A after they were denied a penalty upon review in a 0-0 draw against Inter.

Inzaghi told Mediaset Premium: "Lazio haven't been lucky with VAR. With seven more points we would be higher in the table.

"I agree it wasn't a penalty, but the fact remains there have been decisions in our favour where the VAR was not even checked, so it's inconsistent.

"I'll be honest, I don't like this technology. I prefer the Europa League, where there is no VAR.

"Anyway, we deserved to win."
