Manager Unai Emery voiced strong displeasure over the handling of the situation by match officials and VAR.\n\nDuring the game, Nottingham Forest player Elliot Anderson made a challenge on Watkins that Emery later described as 'ankle-breaking'. The tackle was forceful and raised immediate concerns about player safety on the pitch.\n\nEmery reacted swiftly from the touchline, visibly urging the referee to take action. He expected a red card to be issued for what he deemed a dangerous foul, but the referee did not dismiss Anderson, and VAR did not intervene to change the decision.\n\nIn his post-match press conference, Emery did not mince words. He criticized the VAR officials for their failure to review the incident adequately and enforce the rules. Emery argued that such a reckless challenge warranted an automatic sending-off to protect players and maintain fairness.\n\nThe loss to Nottingham Forest compounded Villa's frustrations, as they missed an opportunity to secure points. Emery felt that the incorrect officiating directly impacted the match's outcome, putting his team at a disadvantage.\n\nEmery called for greater consistency in the use of technology, emphasizing that VAR should step in for clear and obvious errors. He urged football authorities to examine the incident and ensure better accountability in future decisions.\n\nThroughout his comments, Emery highlighted the importance of player welfare. He stressed that officials must prioritize safety and be decisive in penalizing dangerous play to uphold the integrity of the sport.\n\nBased on reporting from Football | Mail Online.","news","Aston Villa manager Unai Emery criticizes VAR officials for not sending off Elliot Anderson after a reckless challenge on Ollie Watkins during their loss to Nottingham Forest.","327051336866598913","326135625054949376","Premier League","0","2026-04-30T22:36:08Z","emery-slams-var-for-overlooking-dangerous-tackle-in-villa-s-forest-defeat","Football | Mail Online","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.dailymail.com\u002Fsport\u002Ffootball\u002Farticle-15780913\u002FFurious-Unai-Emery-tears-VAR-officials-failure-send-Elliot-Anderson-ankle-breaking-challenge-Ollie-Watkins-Aston-Villas-defeat-Nottingham-Forest.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490","326257546425798656","Aston Villa",[53,56,57,58,59,60,61,62,63],"326257546392244224","326255039884562432","326257698452541440","326257698578370560","326257703296962560","326257747320377344","326257766752587776","326222707169431552",[54,65,66,67,68,69,70,71,72],"Nottingham Forest","Vardar Skopje","IFK Varnamo","Varbergs BoIS FC","Varnsdorf","Varzim","Fortaleza EC","Anderlecht","Emery Slams VAR for Overlooking Dangerous Tackle in Villa's Forest Defeat",[75,109,129,155],{"awayTeamId":-1,"awayTeamName":-1,"body":-1,"category":43,"excerpt":76,"homeTeamId":-1,"homeTeamName":-1,"id":77,"leagueId":46,"leagueName":47,"matchId":48,"matchName":21,"publishedAt":78,"slug":79,"sourceName":80,"sourceURL":81,"teamId":82,"teamName":83,"teamIds":84,"teamNames":96,"title":108},"Reports from England indicate Manchester City midfielder Reijnders could be on the move this summer, sparking a transfer tug-of-war between Real Madrid and Juventus for the 27-year-old Dutchman.","327184844788338689","2026-05-06T02:25:04Z","real-madrid-and-juventus-enter-transfer-battle-for-manchester-city-s-reijnders","Fútbol","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.mundodeportivo.com\u002Ffutbol\u002Freal-madrid\u002F20260505\u002F1004179159\u002Fbatalla-real-madrid-juventus-jugador-city.html","326257546258026496","Manchester City",[82,85,86,87,88,89,90,91,92,93,94,95,63],"326222712496197632","326257565535047680","326257539542945792","326222712143876096","326257537596788736","326257590545682432","326257610309242880","326257747022581760","326257539333230592","326222711682502656","326257661500723200",[83,97,98,99,100,101,102,103,104,105,106,107,72],"Netherlands","Real Madrid","Juventus","Portugal","FC Porto","Portland Timbers","Club Queretaro","Portimonense","AC Milan","England","Italy","Real Madrid and Juventus Enter Transfer Battle for Manchester City’s Reijnders",{"awayTeamId":82,"awayTeamName":83,"body":-1,"category":43,"excerpt":110,"homeTeamId":111,"homeTeamName":112,"id":113,"leagueId":46,"leagueName":47,"matchId":114,"matchName":115,"publishedAt":78,"slug":116,"sourceName":80,"sourceURL":117,"teamId":82,"teamName":83,"teamIds":118,"teamNames":123,"title":128},"Manchester City's late 3-3 draw at Everton means they no longer control their Premier League title destiny.
