Was Farrell fouled on Akinola’s goal?

Ayo Akinola scored his eighth goal of the year in the 29th minute of Wednesday’s game against the New England Revolution. The play, which began with a slick pass by Alejandro Pozuelo, came with some controversy due to Akinola’s interaction with Andrew Farrell.
