During the match between Bournemouth and Burnley, forward Jay Rodriguez scored a goal in an offside position in the 88th minute, and VAR took a long time to make a decision.

The Premier League has set a peculiar record: the longest VAR decision. The Video Assistant Referee (VAR) took 5 minutes to confirm the decision made by the on-field assistant referee.

This incident has sparked a debate about the use of VAR and the duration of its checks. Prior to this situation, the previous longest video check in England was 3 minutes and 45 seconds, which occurred in November 2019 when a goal by David McGoldrick of Sheffield was disallowed against Tottenham.
