Virgil van Dijk's goal against Man City SHOULD have stood, rules Premier League panel, despite Howard Webb's defence of decision that enraged Liverpool

Virgil van Dijk's goal against Man City should not have been chalked off, according to the Premier League's Key Match Incidents panel.

The Liverpool captain headed home from a corner to make it 1-1 before a hugely controversial decision to disallow the goal due to Andy Robertson said to be interfering with play in Gianluigi Donnarumma's eyeline in an offside position.

The panel comprises of three former players or coaches, a representative from the Premier League and another from PGMOL.

They have reviewed the decision and gone against referee Chris Kavanagh and his assistant Stuart Burt, according to the Times.
