(Reuters) - Substitute Umar Sadiq earned Real Sociedad a point at home against Atletico Madrid in a 1-1 draw on Saturday in a LaLiga match in which the video referee assistant played a key role.

Alvaro Morata scored from a rebound in the fifth minute of the first half but had a second goal ruled out following a lengthy VAR review, due to a handball by Joao Felix in the build-up.
