Manchester City manager Enzo Maresca has defended the VAR error that allowed Erling Haaland's winning goal against Manchester United at Old Trafford. The goal sparked controversy following a VAR review, but Maresca insisted that the incident should not overshadow City's overall performance during the 1-0 victory. Speaking at a press conference, Maresca emphasized that such VAR errors are part of football and should not be focused on after a strong display.
He also mentioned a previous controversial decision involving City at Old Trafford, where Marcus Rashford's goal stood despite a previous VAR review. Maresca expressed that City still awaits an apology from Manchester United for that incident. The manager further stated that rotating the squad for the upcoming Carabao Cup match against Norwich would be beneficial, providing players with an opportunity to improve their fitness and build form ahead of a challenging period.
