Head coach Fabian Hurzeler believes Brighton & Hove Albion should have been awarded a penalty in the 1-1 home draw against Newcastle United.
Craig Pawson initially gave Newcastle second-half spot kicks for a foul by Tariq Lamptey on fellow substitute Anthony Gordon and for a challenge by Jan Paul van Hecke on Joe Willock, only to change his mind both times after the intervention of VAR Andy Madley.

Pawson looked at the incidents again on the pitch side monitor at the Amex Stadium before awarding Newcastle a free-kick on the first occasion as Lamptey made initial contact outside the area, then booking Willock for diving in the second incident.
Newcastle equalised with a 89th-minute penalty by Alexander Isak after sub Yasin Ayari handled a free-kick by Fabian Schar in the defensive wall, but Hurzeler claimed Pawson should have awarded Brighton a second-half penalty for a challenge by Sandro Tonali on Matt O’Riley.
“That’s a thing I don’t understand,” Hurzeler said during his post-match press conference. “When there is not even a touch (by Van Hecke) he blows the whistle and gives a penalty for them. I don’t see there was a big difference to the foul by ‘T’ (Lamptey) on Gordon and the foul on Matt O’Riley. I think if he gives the penalty, VAR has no chance to change it.”
Hurzeler, asked about the impact VAR had on the game, added: “I always say VAR makes football more fair and today we saw it. The one foul that wasn’t even a touch from JP (van Hecke), without VAR we would sit here and talk about someone who tried to get a penalty without a touch, so that confirms my opinion about VAR.
“But, of course, it breaks the rhythm of the game. It is very frustrating how long it takes. On one side it is very positive, on the other side we all know it breaks the rhythm.”
The points dropped via Newcastle’s late equaliser, following a first-half lead provided by Yankuba Minteh against his former club, leave Brighton in tenth place in the tight race to finish eighth, which is likely to be good enough to reach the Europa Conference League.
They go to Wolves for their penultimate away game on Saturday a point below Bournemouth in eighth, adrift of Brentford in ninth on goal difference and above Fulham in 11th by a point.

Vasco melhora sem Vegetti e Coutinho, mas falha de Hugo Moura sela derrota para o Palmeiras
O Vasco deu sinais de melhora e jogou boa parte do tempo de igual para igual com o Palmeiras, em Brasília, mas acabou derrotado depois de uma falha fatal do volante Hugo Moura. Sem Vegetti e Coutinho, poupados, Felipe Maestro mandou a campo uma equipe mais equilibrada física e taticamente, que começou melhor que o adversário. Após acertar mais finalizações e por pouco não sair na frente, o Vasco levou o gol na etapa final, nos pés de Vitor Roque: 1 a 0. É o sexto jogo seguido sem vitória vascaína, apesar de Felipe ter encontrado boas soluções. Na quarta-feira, o time encara o Puerto Cabello, pela Sul-Americana. No Brasileiro, segue a queda livre, agora na décima-terceira posição. - Nosso primeiro tempo foi muito bom. Palmeiras teve mais volume no segundo tempo. O erro acontece.
