The Premier League’s referees’ body has acknowledged that Erling Haaland’s winning goal in a recent derby match against Manchester United should not have been allowed to stand. An official review has confirmed the goal was scored from an offside position, raising questions about the initial on-field decision. The admission follows a standard process of video evidence assessment, though the league has not yet announced whether any disciplinary action will be taken. Football authorities are now expected to clarify how the mistake will be addressed in the coming days.
