Liverpool vs Man City VAR intervention to disallow Rayan Cherki goal and send off Dominik Szoboszlai ruined golden moment, says Gary Neville

Gary Neville says the decision to overturn Rayan Cherki's late goal from the halfway line in Manchester City's win over Liverpool erased one of the moments of the season and provided ammunition for those who feel VAR is ruining football.

Cherki's low effort, with Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson caught upfield, sparked wild Manchester City celebrations at Anfield but the goal was ruled out following a VAR check due to a foul by Erling Haaland on Dominik Szoboszlai as they sprinted towards the empty net.

Haaland's foul meant referee Craig Pawson had to then consider an earlier pull by Szoboszlai on Haaland, and send the Liverpool player off for denying a clear goalscoring opportunity.
