Lee Mason has left his role as a Premier League official by 'mutual consent' in the wake of the VAR controversy in the match between Arsenal and Brentford.
Mason, who was the video referee for the game, incorrectly allowed the Bees' equaliser by Ivan Toney to stand in the 1-1 draw, after apparently forgetting to draw the lines that would have found Christian Norgaard was offside in the build-up.
Ad Arsenal were offered an apology by the Professional Game Match Officials Limited (PGMOL), who admitted that the mistake was a result of 'human error'.
