Manchester United fans are furious that VAR adjudged the ball to have stayed in play in the build-up to Said Benrahma’s goal for West Ham in Wednesday’s FA Cup clash.
Tomas Soucek looked to have allowed the ball to roll over the line before dragging it back onto the pitch. Amidst the close call, United players had stopped running, only to have to scramble back when the officials waved play on.
Benrahma picked up the ball and fired it into the corner of David de Gea’s net to give the visitors the lead on 54 minutes. As soon as the ball hit the back of the net, United players protested that the ball had indeed gone out of play.
