Nottingham Forest manager Oliver Glasner has said he was left confused by the decision not to send off Issa Diop in English football after a VAR check. VAR is the video assistant referee system, which helps officials review contentious incidents. The episode came in a match Forest drew 1-1 away at Ipswich Town.

The result means Forest's winless run has stretched to four matches in a row.

The manager's view

Glasner expressed his bewilderment at the officials' decision after the game. At the same time, he praised his side's performance in the match. He urged his players to stay patient as they try to end the unsuccessful run.

The source gives no further detail on what exactly happened in the Diop incident or how the officials explained their decision.
