Keith Hackett, a former PGMOL chief and ex-FIFA official, asserts that Brighton's Joao Pedro's goal against Manchester United was wrongly disallowed due to an 'accidental' collision. Hackett believes Brighton and Pedro are justified in their grievance, though the decision ultimately had minimal impact on the match's outcome. United won 3-1, but Hackett argues the goal should have stood based on the nature of the contact.
Brighton star Joao Pedro saw his goal v Man United wrongly disallowed after an “accidental” collision in the build-up, Keith Hackett has claimed.
Fabian Hurzeler’s side ran out as 3-1 winners thanks to goals from Yankuba Minteh, Kaoru Mitoma and Georginio Rutter, while United’s goal came courtesy of a Bruno Fernandes penalty. Ruben Amorim’s side have now won just one of their last six games in the Premier League, via a late 3-1 win against Southampton at home.This led the boss to label his side “the worst in Man United history” in a highly critical assessment of the situation he and the club have found themselves in.
