Alan Shearer and Ian Wright have disagreed as to whether Arsenal's opening goal against Fulham at the weekend should have stood. Gabriel Magalhaes gave the Gunners the lead at Craven Cottage with a towering header, rising above Tosin Adarabioyo and Tim Ream to nod the ball past Bernd Leno.
The former Newcastle United striker claimed there was a reason for the referee to rule out the goal after Ben White was seen lurking in an offside position in the six-yard box at the time of his teammates' goal. However, the Video Assistant Referee deemed that the England international was not impeding, nor interfering, with the opponents' goalkeeper and Gabriel's opener stood.
Arsenal saw a goal chalked off in their recent win over Leicester City when White was the centre of attention during a similar incident. Despite Shearer's claims, Wright didn't believe that there was anything contentious about the north London outfits' goal.
