Rasmus Hojlund, Man Utd’s highly anticipated young striker, was denied his first goal due to VAR intervention. Despite displaying remarkable skill and determination, positioning himself perfectly to capitalize on a well-executed team play, his powerful shot that rattled the goal was met with a disheartening comment from the Video Assistant Referee. The Old Trafford fans’ initial jubilation quickly turned into silence.

 

 

Replays analyzed every angle of the goal, scrutinizing every movement and touch. Unfortunately, upon closer inspection, it was discovered that Hojlund was slightly offside in the build-up to the goal. The excitement and joy that filled the stadium quickly turned into disappointment and frustration.
