Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou bristled at claims VAR helped his team in victory over Everton.

The visitors had a goal ruled out by VAR, but Postecoglou insists they weren't 'helped' by the decision.

He explained, "Nah, see that's really bad terminology. Why would it help us out? It was a foul. It didn't help us out and I don't like VAR. I don't like it today either. So that's part of the problem because people use that kind of terminology, like it helped or it goes against. It's a tool, it's used. I still don't like it.

"Did it help us? I don't know if it helped us. If that goal stood, we might have scored a third. That's the beauty of football. So I've already said I don't like the way VAR is being used; I didn't like the way it was used today.

"I thought it was a foul, yeah....but the referee missed it and probably missed another foul as well. That's part of the game, that's part of football."
