Premier League VAR officials that allowed Nathan Ake's goal against Fulham to stand will NOT officiate matches from Stockley Park this weekend after Howard Webb admits mistake

The two VARs who failed to disallow Manchester City's goal against Fulham for offside will not be in action at Stockley Park this weekend.

VAR Tony Harrington and assistant VAR Adam Nunn were deemed at fault when City took their 2-1 lead through Nathan Ake, despite Manuel Akanji standing in an offside position and interfering with play as he was in front of Fulham goalkeeper Bernd Leno.

Referee Michael Oliver allowed the goal to stand and that was not challenged by his colleagues, but Howard Webb, speaking on Match Officials Mic'd Up, admitted that was a mistake.
