Man City 2-1 Man United: Was Rashford offside during the Manchester Derby when Bruno scored the equalizer?


»Man City 2-1 Man United: Was Rashford offside during the Manchester Derby when Bruno scored the equalizer?«

Man Utd. When asked about the legitimacy of Manchester United’s equalizer in today’s Manchester Derby, Pep Guardiola appeared confused in his postgame interview. United defeated City 2-1 and now trails City by just one point in the Premier League standings.

City dominated the ball in the first half but did little with it, although United occasionally appeared dangerous on the counterattack. Substitute Jack Grealish scored on an exquisite Kevin De Bruyne cross at the hour mark to give City a deserved lead. The second half came to life as City began to move the ball more quickly. At that point, City was in cruise control.

The Bafana Bafana player who was dismissed on his Premier League debut is recalled.

Then the problematic moment arrived. Marcus Rashford ignored Casemiro’s wonderful through ball intended for an obviously offside Marcus Rashford.

Bruno Fernandes arrived on the scene to score, but the referee determined that he was offside. Stuart Atwell nevertheless, after consulting with his video assistance, awarded the goal.

Who knows what the rules are currently? — Dimitar Berbatov on Bruno’s equalizer. Yup. #ManchesterDerby

After less than three minutes, Marcus Rashford gave United the lead after Alejandro Garnacho, an 18-year-old substitute from Argentina, had performed admirably.

At 18 years and 197 days, he is the youngest player ever to assist in a Manchester Derby.

United have now won ten straight matches at Old Trafford in all competitions and have climbed to third place in the Premier League.

Rashford is the first Manchester United player since Cristiano Ronaldo in 2008 to score in seven successive games. He’s in excellent condition.

Do you believe that United’s equalizer by Bruno Fernandes should have stood? Please provide feedback in the comments section.
