    Tottenham fans couldn't believe what they were seeing during the first-half of their Premier League clash against Chelsea after another VAR nightmare. <\/p>\n

    The London rivals went head to head at the Tottenham Hotspur stadium with Dejan Kulusevski scoring thanks to a huge deflection after just six minutes – before Destiny Udogie somehow avoided a red card for a two-footed lunge which almost caught Raheem Sterling. <\/p>\n

    Sterling then thought he had equalised before his goal was ruled out for handball – and Cristian Romero also avoided red after a VAR check, having booted Levi Colwill off the ball.<\/p>\n

    Matters got even more wild after Moises Caicedo thought he had scored from outside the box with his effort also ruled out for offside.<\/p>\n

    A penalty was then given for a tackle by Romero on Enzo Fernandes – which was also serious foul play which led to a straight red card.<\/p>\n

    Fans couldn't keep up on social media with what fans dubbed the 'wildest half of the Premier League season so far'.<\/p>\n

    Giving his thoughts on Sky Sports, Gary Neville said of the first two red card calls: "So, Udogie should be off and Romero is a lucky boy."<\/p>\n

    He then added of the penalty drama: "It's a mad challenge by Romero. For me, it's a penalty. And he is in trouble because it is high – he might go here…<\/p>\n

    "It's not a natural follow through. It's definitely a penalty but for me, it's whether it is a red."<\/p>\n
