Ex-Premier League Referee: Haaland’s Winning Goal vs Arsenal Shouldn’t Have Stood
Manchester City’s 1-0 victory over Arsenal has been questioned by former PGMOL chief Keith Hackett. He insists Erling Haaland held Gabriel Magalhaes by the shirt as the winning strike went in, a clear offence that VAR should have spotted. Hackett argues the foul impacted Gabriel’s ability to defend and that the goal should have been ruled out. He says VAR missed the holding offence and Arsenal should have been awarded a free-kick instead. With City now eyeing top spot if they beat Burnley on Wednesday, the debate over that controversial finish shows no sign of dying down.
