Premier League have just announced the shocking VAR Error By referees of Manchester United vs Bournemouth- PGMOL under scrutiny over surprising VAR mistake made by The Referee during the Man United vs Bournemouth match after not awarding Bournemouth a late penalty
Manchester United drew 2-2 with Bournemouth thanks to a contentious penalty decision, with Bruno Fernandes’ shot from 12 yards out earning them the points. The visitors had a chance to climb the standings above Newcastle United with their Premier League match against the Cherries, but they failed to capitalise, finishing seventh on Saturday, 10 points behind fourth-placed Aston Villa.
The Cherries’ first goal came in the 16th minute, when Dominic Solanke beat an isolated Willy Kambwala and slotted it past Andre Onana. Manchester United captain Fernandes then leveled the game with an unexpected goal, eliciting a collective sigh of relief from the visitors on the field and in the away end.
The home side regained control after disastrous defense when Kambwala and Diogo Dalot’s lack of communication left Justin Kluivert in acres of open, which Marco Senesi discovered. The Dutchman took advantage, restoring the hosts’ lead nine minutes after they had been pulled back. The Red Devils went into the halftime break down by a goal after being much inferior in the first 45 minutes.
Fernandes, one of the Premier League’s top midfielders, equalized on the south coast with a penalty kick in the 65th minute. However, the problematic manner in which it occurred has been questioned, since Adam Smith, the perpetrator, was baffled by referee Tony Harrington’s choice to point to the spot.
Kobbie Mainoo lined up a shot while Ten Hag’s team was on the break. Bournemouth’s Ryan Christie stopped the youngster’s shot on the brink of the penalty area. After ricocheting off the Scotsman, the ball sailed towards Smith, who made no effort to redirect the ball with his arm.
Harrington, on the other side, felt confident that Smith’s handball was deliberate, and Manchester United rallied from behind for the second time in the game to claim a share of the spoils on the road. Smith was seen shaking his head in surprise minutes after Fernandes equalised.
GIVEMESPORT Key Statistic: Manchester United has won just one of their past seven Premier League games, defeating Everton 2-0.
Manchester United seemed to have shot themselves in the foot once again during extra time in the second half. Kambwala, who had battled to manage Solanke’s aggression throughout the game, had a penalty declared against him when he took down Christie, and the man in the middle pointed to the spot, this time in favor of Andoni Iraola’s side, who are also striving for a top-half finish.
However, there was disagreement as to whether the contact happened beyond the visiting team’s penalty area, prompting a VAR consultation. The referee then overruled the judgment and awarded Bournemouth a free kick. Iraola and his team would feel shortchanged if they do not win their 12th Premier League title.
