Erling Haaland scored the lone goal of Sunday’s derby to give Manchester City a narrow win at Old Trafford, but it wasn’t devoid of intense controversy. In fact, Manchester United center back Lisandro Martínez railed at the “injustice” of a supposedly “offside” winner. The goal was later deemed an “error of judgment” by Pro Ref, soccer’s official refereeing body.
Playing with 10 men following Phil Foden’s equally divisive first-half red card, City had a mountain to climb to survive against their arch-rivals in hostile territory.
