Are Salford still in? If so they'll be fine.

I’m no Man U fan , but there’s no way that boro goal should’ve been allowed. Blatant handball which lead to the goal . Don’t care what the so called new laws are , we’d have been fuming if County scored that goal today.

Utd will blame VAR and to some extent they’d be right but it still just masks the fact a multi million pound defence was caught out by a ball over the top.

They’ve now had a series of managers at utd and in truth, aside from solksjaer being way out of his depth, it’s evident that there’s more wrong than anyones happy to admit…

It wasn't a deliberate hand ball.

It's only that they changed the rule for part of last season and now changed it again that has caused the furore /confusion

Players, managers, supporters at all levels ( myself included in this ) and pundits really do need to keep upto date with rule changes , would prevent the angst.

Let’s be honest though, pre-VAR the referee would have blown up for handball every time because the player got a definite advantage from the handball.

They don’t blow up now as they’re told not to, but the rule has changed so only a handball by the goal scorer will be referred to VAR.

The on field referee needs to let the move finish and then disallow the goal (if scored) & give the free kick for the handball.

The Middlesbrough goal shouldn’t have stood. But there’s a loophole where the referee won’t disallow & VAR can’t disallow.

The technical issue affecting the food was possibly caused by someone at the club realising that despite their massive gates year on year, a NL club had played before a larger crowd at Old Trafford than they had.

Oh the shame for such a prestigious club.  They would not have wanted this fact broadcast on live TV during an FA Cup tie - when we set the ground attendance record in an FAC semi-final.

.........

Good to see Ronaldo consoling the young player who missed the key penalty.  Not as if someone with his ability and experience had missed a penalty in the game is it?  Maybe Ronaldo should have been consoled.
