VAR was once again at the forefront of a Premier League game as Liverpool and Manchester United faced off in Sunday's north-west derby at Anfield.
Despite a promising start from United, the League leaders Liverpool took the lead as Virgil van Dijk rose unmarked to power a header high into the net 14 minutes into the contest.
Liverpool thought they had doubled their lead through Roberto Firmino 11 minutes later as the Brazilian whipped a fine effort around David de Gea, though United were furious at what they felt to be a foul by Van Dijk on the goalkeeper in the build-up.
De Gea was booked by referee Craig Pawson for his protests, but following a VAR check on the challenge, the official awarded United a foul - and the score reverted to 1-0.
Before the VAR review, Gary Neville said: "I don't think that's a foul. I think he just dropped it. It's soft."
Standard Sport's Liverpool correspondent, David Lynch, was in attendance at Anfield and said of the decision: You have to say that's a decent intervention from VAR.
"The referee is right to let it run - it's not the most obvious of fouls from Van Dijk - but there's definitely enough contact to stop De Gea claiming the ball."
But what do you think - should the goal have stood, or was the correct decision made? Have your say in our poll below.
