Manchester City Beat Newcastle 2–0 as VAR Controversy Dominates Semi Final
Manchester City took a 2–0 lead over Newcastle in the first leg of the Carabao Cup semi final, but the match was overshadowed by a lengthy VAR decision that ruled out Antoine Semenyo’s second half goal. The strike was disallowed after officials judged Erling Haaland to have interfered from an offside position, sparking frustration from City players and manager Pep Guardiola despite a late goal sealing the win.
