Medicine after death.....Even me that was a spectator knew that the goal shouldn't have stood because even if Haaland was onside, Enzo that was offside interfered with play hence, the goal shouldn't have stood yet more than one professional referee handling VAR want to make us believe they didn't see it and now see what they're calling punishment. .

Seriously, the premier League needs to do better about these blatant referee/VAR errors and inconsistencies.....for a league that prides itself as the best in the world....fair and consistent refereeing should be the least of things we should expect from them. .

Will they refund my 7 million I lost because of the match?

Why not cancel the 3 points ? So Man utd will lose three points just like that .....
Too much fraud in English premier League.....

thesame exact thing benefited Man U last season against City when Rashford interfered with play while offside b4 his teammate scored

every season EPL will try to outdo themselves on how poor their officiating can be attimes.

if you can punish the refs retrospectively, the result of the games in focus should be affected too and tables adjusted.

that should be the sensible thing to do

United has not been the most vocal concerning this matter. The whole footballing world watched the incident being the top derby on planet soccer that weekend and were unanimous in condemning the travesty.

I think that is what brought a swifter attention by the ref committee and a more sombre response to the inquest. Arteta equally had beef concerning the pen awarded to Southampton but that had scant traction. It was beyond the Red Devils' ire.

Omo we don already bury our head in shame no doubt about that. But that doesn't mean the truth shouldn't be said.
It was a blatant offside.
It was only officials that were punish, they didn't give us the 3pts so no need to cry wolf here

It is a universal soccer law that results that the decision of the referee is final. Results cannot be changed once the whistle is blown. It is not athletics or IOC business where medals are recalled long after competitions are ended.

As someone said, if you start down that lane how far back will you go. Wil you raise Diego Maradona from the dead to return his World cup medal for his 'Hand of god' hack in 86...amongst many, hundreds of past issues.

I told someone yesterday that the pro ref apologized because Manchester United Fc is the victim of their unprofessionalism, bias and prejudice that someone like me have been complaining about in EPL.

It’s now that I am reading this topic i got to know that the head of pro ref is Howard Web. So what are we talking about?

Now they are saying that they have suspended the VAR ref, is that the solution? Something that will still happen. Even with all the technological advancements in football, English refs cannot stop their daylight robberies. That is who they are.

Manchester United had similar situation against us City.

Rash ford was offside and was running after the ball before Bruno Fernandes slammed the ball into City's net. That was last season or so.
Why are they crying now

They really buy market big time,

They didn't realize Howard Webb is a 'chronic' Man U fan.

We used to call him Man U referee in those days.

Enzo didn't touch the ball.

The problem is that the referees are biased and struggle to keep a lid on it.

The handball situations are the worst

Bruno Guimeres was fouled in the 18 yard box and a penalty was not given. Even though I wanted Man. U to at least draw, I am happy that it affected them. It has always been goin their way.
WHy didn't Man U fans complain when Phil Foden was given a red card and Bruno Fernandez, the instigator went free ?

Re: Matt Donohue: The VAR Referees For The Manchester Derby Has Been Punished by Lamasta(m): 2:24pm On Sep 16

Man Utd has been consoling themselves since their painful defeat to the incoming EPL Champions, Fergie001 and his goons have been running helter skelter to purnish the innocent VAR officials while their man that gave Foden a red card unjustly is free, talk about injustice to one is injustice to all my foot.......

No amount of intimidation can take away our 3 point....

It was a sweet victory
