FIFA has just announced VERY SAD NEWS for the Officials and Referees of the match between Manchester United vs Brighton and this have cost them thier Job after not awarding a penalty to Manchester United

Premier League has released a statement explaining the decision to disallow Brighton’s goal against Manchester United. Joao Pedro thought he had scored his second goal against United this season, but the referee ultimately ruled out the goal due to a foul by Jan Paul van Hecke on Diogo Dalot earlier in the play.

According to the Premier League Match Centre account, the referee’s initial call of a goal was reviewed by VAR, which deemed that van Hecke had committed a foul on Dalot. The referee then overturned the original decision, disallowing the goal.

However, not everyone agreed with the decision. Pundit Richard Keys took to social media to express his outrage, calling the decision “a disgrace” and “absolute joke.” Keys’ criticism reflects the frustration felt by many Brighton fans, who believed that the goal should have stood.

The match was tied 1-1 when Pedro’s goal was disallowed. Yankuba Minteh had given Brighton the lead, but Bruno Fernandes equalized for United from the penalty spot. Despite the setback, Brighton managed to regain the lead around the hour mark, thanks to a goal from Kaoru Mitoma.

The disallowed goal was not the only controversy involving VAR during Sunday’s Premier League matches. Nottingham Forest defender Nikola Milenkovic thought he had scored his team’s fourth goal against Southampton, but the goal was ruled out due to an offside call.

The use of VAR has been a topic of debate in the Premier League, with some arguing that it helps to ensure accuracy and fairness, while others believe that it can be inconsistent and disrupt the flow of the game. In this case, the decision to disallow Brighton’s goal has sparked controversy and highlighted the ongoing challenges of implementing VAR in the Premier League.
