CHAOS erupted after VAR bizarrely ordered referee Andy Madley to count the NUMBER of players on the pitch during Wolves v Aston Villa.

A statement from the Premier League's Match Centre account on X read: "The referees call of no goal due to an offside offence is checked and confirmed by VAR – with Rogers in an offside position and deemed to be impacting the ability of Semedo to play or challenge for the ball.".

The second half was littered with controversial moments as Villa saw a goal disallowed and Wolves were denied a penalty shout.

But to make matters worse, VAR was previously called into scrutiny just 20 minutes before the chaos after disallowing Villa's equaliser.
