FA Cup Final: Audio Oliver - VAR

Fascinating audio reveals what referee Michael Oliver’s conversations with his assistants and the players in the build-up to awarding Chelsea penalty during FA Cup final win over Manchester United. What referees hear and say on the football pitch as they make a VAR decision has been revealed for the first time. And it shows how the man in the middle deals with the players, and his vast array of assistants as Eden Hazard is brought down by Phil Jones inside the box. As the Belgian bears down on goal, an assistant can be heard shouting 'DOGSO' (Denial of Goal Scoring Opportunity). 'Not now, not now,' replies Oliver, before Jones finally fouls Hazard inside the box, prompting Oliver to blow the whistle and point to the spot, in footage shared by NBCSN. The VAR immediately indicates that they will take a closer look at the incident, before both sets of players surround Oliver. Oliver can be heard telling the United players 'he's not got the ball', and also informing the Chelsea players that it was a 'genuine attempt to play the ball', prompting the award of a yellow card for the foul.
