Ex-Man United striker Wayne Rooney: 'Baffling' that VAR awarded Erling Haaland goal

Wayne Rooney has voiced strong disagreement with a video assistant referee ruling that allowed a goal by Erling Haaland to stand. The former Manchester United forward labeled the review system's decision to validate the strike as entirely mystifying.

Rooney expressed disbelief that the review officials came to that conclusion, questioning the officiating process behind confirming the goal on the pitch.
