Manchester United legend Rio Ferdinand has slammed Premier League officials after Erling Haaland’s goal counted in the defeat to Manchester City. He believes that the decision was a mistake, but also questioned the tactics after the red card.
Taking to X after the match, Ferdinand posted that Lisandro Martinez went to close down Enzo Fernandez, who was in an offside position, and it was the right call from the defender. However, he is surprised VAR did not see it as interference with play that left Haaland unmarked at the far post.
