MARK CLATTENBURG: The PGMOL are admitting they were wrong in allowing Bernardo Silva's goal to stand

  /  autty

I said at the time that letting Manchester City's goal stand was the wrong call. PGMOL tried to justify it by explaining the law and their interpretation of it.

They hid behind the idea that Tyrone Mings 'deliberately' played the ball.

But by now saying this would be offside from now on, they are admitting they were in the wrong. It's only right that situations such as this would result in an offside.

That is what everyone associated with football would expect to happen.

Mings chested the ball but was challenged immediately by Rodri, which prevented him from gaining control of it. He was then robbed of possession and City gained an advantage.

At least now we know this would be offside in the future.
