The Premier League have released a statement to explain why Alejandro Garnacho's second-half finish against Leicester City was ruled offside. The Manchester United winger thought he had put Ruben Amorim's side 2-0 up as he and his teammates raced toward the away end to celebrate, but the flag eventually went up. It was a delayed call. And a statement has now been released by the Premier League's official match centre account on X to explain the decision. "The referee's call of no goal was checked and confirmed by the VAR – with Garnacho in an offside position," they confirmed. Garancho eventually did score moments later to double United's lead. United's positive performance has been dampened, however, after Ayden Heaven suffered what looked to be a serious injury. The centre-back was stretched off at the King Power Stadium.
