Arsenal claim 3 key points with controversial goal

OFFSIDE OR NOT? Arsenal claim three crucial points with controversial play

January 22, 2023 By Oscar Rojas
Eddie Nketiah's brace and Bukayo Saka's strike were enough for the Gunners to defeat a feisty Manchester United side at the Emirates.

One of the best Premier League games this season had Arsenal and Manchester United exchanging blows for over 85 minutes...and it all was decided by a close offside call in favor of the home team.

Arsenal had come from behind to cancel Marcus Rashford's opener in the first half with goals by Eddie Nketiah and Bukayo Saka, but a mistake by Aaron Ramsdale gave the Red Devils a chance to level the game thanks to a header by Lisandro Martínez. When time was about to expire, things got pretty tense at the stadium with a late goal by Nketiah, which should have been disallowed for offside according to fans watching their TV sets.

While Nketiah's position seems to be correct at the time he hit the ball to find the back of the net, it was Oleksandr Zinchenko's positioning which raised a few eyebrows.

Here's the full sequence for you to make a decision (Image might be geo-restricted).

With this win, Arsenal are five points clear at the top of the Premier League, while Manchester United drop to fourth, level on 39 points with Newcastle, and with the need to bounce back as soon as possible if they want to keep their minimal title hopes alive.
