Manchester City wrongly awarded Haaland goal by VAR according to refs’ body

The referees' body, Pro Ref, admitted that the decision to award Erling Haaland's goal in Manchester City's 1-0 victory over Manchester United was an "error of judgment". The goal, initially disallowed for offside, was validated after VAR intervention, despite Enzo Fernandez being in an offside position. Pro Ref acknowledged that VAR did not recognize the likely impact of Fernandez's position and stated that a review of the incident would take place.
