Fans are convinced they have seen the worst decision of the season as Aston Villa were denied an opening goal against Manchester United at Old Trafford.
Aston Villa were convinced they had secured Champions League football for the second consecutive season after Morgan Rogers appeared to nick the ball away from United goalkeeper Atlay Bayinder and put the ball in the net.
However, referee Thomas Bramall had already blown his whistle for a foul on the United shot stopper before the ball had crossed the line making VAR redundant.
With Newcastle United behind to Everton, a Villa goal would have put Unai Emery’s side inside the top five of the Premier League.
Following the controversy United went on to score two quick fire goals through Amad Diallo and Christian Eriksen, condemning Villa to Europa League football for the 25/26 season.
