Newcastle United v Manchester City: Carabao Cup semi-final first leg
68 min: Those in the VAR bunker think Haaland was impairing Nick Pope’s view while standing in an offside position and have recommended that Chris Kavanagh go to his monitor to decide for himself. He does exactly that and rules out the goal. It took the best part of seven minutes for everyone involved to reach that decision and I think it’s the wrong one. But like they say, it’s subjective. I don’t think Pope had a hope of getting near the ball whether Haaland was standing nearby or not.
