VAR decisive for Chievo-Atalanta

VAR was the star at the Bentegodi, as Atalanta had a goal and a penalty revoked with the technology, but a late equaliser given to them against Chievo.

Gian Piero Gasperini was not happy in the first half when his team was awarded a spot-kick at the Bentegodi, only for the decision to be reversed because Andrea Petagna had the ball out of play in the build-up.

Josip Ilicic then had the ball in the back of the net, but again VAR officials confirmed he was offside.

Papu Gomez converted and gave the Orobici a well-deserved point.
