OPINION: The Reason Why Scot McTominay's Second Goal for Man United Shouldn't Have Stood Last Night

Last night, Scot scored two goals for Man Utd in their 2-1 victory over the Blues at Old Trafford. Bruno Fernandes missed an early penalty for the hosts, but McTominay broke the deadlock midway through the first half as Erik ten Hag's team sparkled in the first half. Boyhood United fan and ex-Manchester City forward Cole Palmer equalised on the stroke of half-time, with both sides guilty of missing chances, with McTominay's header after the break ultimately the difference on the night.

However, I contend that the second goal, scored by the midfielder, should not have been allowed.

OPINION: The Reason Why Scot McTominay's Second Goal for Man United Shouldn't Have Stood Last Night

My belief stems from the apparent foul committed by Scot McTominay before he headed the ball home. If you observed the situation closely, you would have noticed that, just before the cross from Garnacho, McTominay seemed to push a Chelsea defender.

Considering this, I argue that the referee should not have ruled out the goal for a foul against McTominay. Chelsea fans, what are your thoughts on this? Feel free to share your comments in the section below. Thank you for reading.
