In what was certainly a thrilling encounter at Old Trafford on Sunday, Manchester United booked a crucial victory over arch-rivals Liverpool.
The Red Devils were 2-0 up within the opening 15 minutes, but Liverpool head coach Arne Slot believes the second goal should’ve been ruled out for handball.
The ball did appear to graze Benjamin Sesko’s fingertips before going into the net, but the VAR apparently found the video footage “inconclusive”, leaving the on-field decision – to allow the goal to stand – unchanged.
