A furious Frank Lampard blasted VAR official Chris Kavanagh as "incompetent at best" and a "professional who cannot do his job right" after his Everton side were denied a late penalty in the 1-0 defeat against Manchester City.

Phil Foden's 82nd-minute goal was shortly followed by the ball striking the arm of midfielder Rodri.
