This is a total disgrace! How can anyone look at that and call it a penalty? It’s crystal clear—never a penalty, never a goal! This decision has to be overturned because it’s pure robbery.

Football deserves better than this nonsense.” That’s a disgrace thanks to jah that goal is not standing💪🙀🙀

One commentator, clearly infuriated, slammed the call, stating: “Anyone watching can see that’s never a penalty! This is a robbery in broad daylight. VAR needs to step in and fix this disgrace. If decisions like this stand, the integrity of the game is at risk.”
As VAR reviewed the incident, tension gripped the stadium. After what felt like an eternity, the referee reversed his decision, triggering a wave of relief and celebration among United fans.
