'He's being weak, it's NOT a foul!': Pundits claim Gabriel Martinelli's goal at Old Trafford should have stood, after VAR overruled the strike... and slam the 'ridiculous' decision to award a free-kick to Christian Eriksen

Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink has slammed the 'ridiculous' decision to rule out Arsenal's opening goal against Manchester United on Sunday.

Mikel Arteta's side thought they'd taken the lead after Martin Odegaard won the ball off Christian Eriksen before setting Gabriel Martinelli in on goal, who tucked the ball into the net.

However, VAR overturned the goal claiming that Odegaard fouled Eriksen, to which the Sky Sports pundits rebuked that the Dane was simply too 'weak'.
