NO GOAL!!! The VAR rules that Jackson was indeed offside and blocking Vicario's view. However, there is yet another VAR check to see whether a Romero challenge in the build-up to the disallowed goal is worthy of a penalty, and even a red card!

GOAL!!! CAICEDO LEVELS WITH A STUNNER!!! A penalty shout falls on defeat ears before the ball finds its way out to Caicedo outside the box. The former Brighton man smashes goalwards first time, and his shot is superb as it flies past Vicario and into the back of the net.
