Haaland goal should not have stood but VAR made the right call with Sunderland penalty | Chris Foy

Former referee Chris Foy has evaluated recent controversial officiating incidents across English football. According to his analysis, a recent goal scored by Erling Haaland was allowed in error and ought to have been disallowed by match officials.

In contrast, Foy endorsed the decision-making surrounding another major incident involving Sunderland. He determined that the video assistant referee reached the correct conclusion when awarding a penalty in that fixture.
