🙄 Tunnel vision? Pro Ref's new take on Haaland's goal

🙄 Tunnel vision? Pro Ref's new take on Haaland's goal Premier League refereeing chief Howard Webb publicly explained Erling Haaland’s controversial goal in Manchester City’s 1-0 win over Manchester United at Old Trafford. Webb said the video officials suffered from “tunnel vision” during the review of the play. Obsession with the ball and Enzo’s interference As the official explained on the program Mic’d Up, VAR referee Matt Donohue focused solely on confirming that Haaland was onside by just three centimeters after Patrick Dorgu’s touch. By focusing only on whether Enzo Fernández touched the ball, he failed to assess the clear distraction caused by the Argentine’s offside position on the home defense. Apology and more controversy in the derby “He became obsessed with the ball and unfortunately no one pulled him out of that tunnel,” Webb admitted, reiterating the formal apology to Manchester United. The Cityzens’ win was marked by more tension after Phil Foden’s earlier sending-off in the first half. This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence.
