Motherwell boss Stuart Kettlewell says he is seeking clarity over Rangers' third goal in today's defeat after video evidence showed Fashion Sakala was offside in the build-up.And he admits the call has put 'a seed of doubt' in his mind over VAR.The Steelmen went down 4-2 in a battling display against the Scottish Premiership title hopefuls and also finished the game with 10 men after Callum Slattery saw red late on.Slattery's sending off has also irked the Fir Park gaffer but the most frustrating factor for Kettlewell is that replays show Sakala to be in an offside position in the lead up to Todd Cantwell's 63rd minute strike, when the game was tied at 2-2.The defeat ended Kettlwell's four-game unbeaten start as Motherwell boss and on the controversial third goal for Rangers he said: "I'm not calling anyone out here, I'm genuinely asking for clarity on it."The pictures I've seen for the third goal and a really important one at a big time in the game, it looks to me as if our player is the blue line - which is Dan Casey - and he is front of the red line of Sakala."We never berated an official, we never berated a referee, we are not hammering the system here in any way, but it is a big goal at a big time in a game I felt we were doing pretty well in."So from that there is a degree of frustration because it looks like Sakala is offside from the lines."But I will stand corrected if someone comes to me and tells me no, in actual fact, it is definitely onside - which it doesn't look to me just now."We do [have faith in VAR] and I have been on the other side of this as being a pundit and passing comment on this, but the one thing I always stood by when I wasn't manager of Motherwell was that the clubs have paid for this system
