Haaland's winner and Enzo Fernández's offside

Enzo Fernández was offside and went for a close ball in front of Lisandro Martínez, so Haaland's winner should not have stood

Referee error
On-field decision
Goal stands
Correct decision
🚫No goal
What was given
Goal first disallowed for offside, then awarded after the VAR check found Haaland onside and Fernández not playing the ball.
The call
No goal. Fernández, in an offside position, clearly attempted to play a close ball in a way that impacted Martínez, which is an offside offence. The restart is an indirect free kick to Manchester United where the offence occurred.
