Premier League Releases Statement on Why Haaland's Goal Against Man Utd Was Given
Pro Ref apologized to Manchester United for an error of judgement in awarding Erling Haaland's winning goal in a Premier League match against them.
VAR found Erling Haaland was onside during the goal decision despite the initial on-field call being offside.
Enzo Fernandez was in an offside position but did not play the ball, making the offside offence subjective; VAR failed to consider his impact and should have recommended an on-field review.
Pro Ref contacted Manchester United to acknowledge the error and stated a formal review of the incident will take place.
