Wrexham's George Dobson received a red card for a late challenge on Chelsea's Alejandro Garnacho after a VAR review overturned the referee's initial yellow card. The incident occurred in the 92nd minute of Wrexham's 2-4 FA Cup defeat to Chelsea. Referee Peter Bankes had initially cautioned Dobson for a reckless tackle before VAR intervened.

Video assistant referee Paul Howard recommended an on-field review after replays showed Dobson's challenge involved high contact on the shin with significant speed and intensity. The VAR team determined the tackle endangered Garnacho's safety, meeting the criteria for serious foul play. Bankes quickly agreed after viewing the footage himself, producing the red card that ended Dobson's night.

The decision sparked debate about the appropriate threshold for red cards. While the point of contact alone might not have warranted dismissal, the combination of speed, intensity, and high shin contact ultimately justified the red card. The late-game dismissal proved costly for Wrexham as they chased an equalizer in their FA Cup match.
