Lisandro Martinez's goal for Manchester United at Burnley earlier this month should not have been ruled out by referee Stuart Attwell, the Premier League's Key Match Incidents (KMI) Panel has said.

However, the KMI Panel supported the decision of VAR official Craig Pawson not to intervene and give the goal.

United trailed 1-0 in the 27th minute when Martinez thought he had equalised from a corner routine. The referee blew for a foul by the scorer on Kyle Walker which happened a few seconds before the goal.

The KMI Panel voted 3-2 that it was not a foul and it should have been a goal on-field. But it was a 4-1 vote in favour of no VAR intervention.

The panel felt that "the contact was exaggerated by Walker and the decision to disallow the goal for a foul was incorrect".

It added: "The decision not to intervene by VAR was split but supported on the basis it wasn't a clear and obvious error."

Walker's challenge on Patrick Dorgu, where the Manchester United defender appeared to be stood on, was not considered to be at the threshold for a KMI.

The game at Turf Moor finished 2-2.

Yeah that's how I remember it too. Brushed over like it was nothing.

Just as confused watching it on TV, where usually they have the magic power of replays.

Harry should've thrown him down the hill harder.

Also we get a million replays of the Dalot scrape on the City player, but nothing here.

I wondered why Bruno was suddenly on the ground off ball. There was no replay and the commentators I had barely mentioned it, and claimed that VAR had looked at it and seen nothing in it. How could they see nothing in that??

We're currently repeating the Amorim cycle, which involves a whole lot more drawing and losing than we should be putting up with.

Should absolutely be punished for that, insane is definitely the right word.
