Referee expert explains Watkins' disallowed goal
A refereeing expert settled the controversy over the disallowed first goal by Watkins in the classic match between Al-Hilal and Al-Ittihad in the Saudi Pro League. He confirmed that the rejected goal was due to a handball by the English striker, as confirmed by the video assistant referee (VAR). The Saudi referee initially awarded the goal before canceling it on the grounds that the ball had touched Watkins' hand, which affected the outcome of the first half, as the score was leading to a 2-1 advantage for Al-Hilal. This decision was decisive because it maintained the goal difference and altered the course of the match.
