Premier League have just announced the shocking VAR Error By referees of Manchester City VS Chelsea- PGMOL under scrutiny over surprising VAR mistake made by The Referee during the Chelsea Match after Nicholas Jackson was ruled Out as Offside

Manchester City kicked off their Premier League title defense with an impressive 2-0 victory over Chelsea on Sunday night, setting the tone for what promises to be another strong season. The match, played at Stamford Bridge, saw Manchester City assert their dominance early on, with a clinical performance that left Chelsea struggling to keep up.

The breakthrough for City came midway through the first half, courtesy of a well-executed goal by Erling Haaland. The Norwegian striker, continuing his prolific form from last season, capitalized on a perfectly weighted pass from Bernardo Silva. Silva’s ball cut through Chelsea’s defense, allowing Haaland to deftly chip the ball over Chelsea’s goalkeeper, Robert Sanchez, putting the visitors ahead.

Chelsea, donning their new home kit, tried to mount a response, relying on the pace and creativity of Christopher Nkunku. The French forward made several sharp runs forward, attempting to break through City’s defense. However, Manuel Akanji, Manchester City’s stalwart defender, was up to the task. Akanji’s defensive prowess was on full display as he thwarted Chelsea’s advances, maintaining City’s lead.

As the game progressed, Chelsea did have a few opportunities to level the score. One of the best chances came when Nicolas Jackson struck a powerful half-volley following a well-worked attacking move. The shot seemed destined for the back of the net, but City’s goalkeeper, Ederson, made a crucial save to keep Chelsea at bay.

Manchester City then doubled their lead with a goal that all but sealed Chelsea’s fate. Mateo Kovacic, a former Chelsea player now with City, showed his class with a brilliant piece of skill. He weaved through Chelsea’s midfield, evading both Moses Caicedo and Enzo Fernandez, before unleashing a shot that deflected off Sanchez’s hands and into the net. This second goal dampened any hopes Chelsea had of a comeback.

In the closing stages of the match, City controlled the game, managing the clock and denying Chelsea any real opportunities to threaten their lead. The defending champions demonstrated why they are the team to beat, comfortably seeing out the game and securing three points on the opening day.

After the match, Chelsea fans took to social media to voice their frustrations, not just with their team’s performance but also with the officiating. Veteran referee Anthony Taylor, who was assigned to oversee the match, became a focal point of their ire. Before the match, some Chelsea supporters had expressed concerns about Taylor’s appointment, given his history with controversial decisions in Chelsea games.

Their fears were seemingly confirmed during the match, as Chelsea fans felt Taylor denied them three clear penalty opportunities. The first incident involved a challenge on Enzo Fernandez by Ruben Diaz in the penalty area, where Taylor decided to wave play on despite Fernandez going to ground. The second contentious moment came after Savinho made contact with Fernandez again in the box. After consulting with the Video Assistant Referee (VAR), Taylor ruled the contact insufficient for a penalty, much to the dismay of Chelsea fans.

The third and perhaps most debated incident occurred when Mateo Kovacic, who had already scored against his former club, appeared to handle the ball in City’s penalty area. Taylor, however, chose to ignore the appeals, allowing play to continue. These decisions led to a wave of anger from Chelsea supporters, who felt that the outcome of the match could have been different had the referee made different calls.

In the end, Manchester City’s composure and clinical finishing ensured they started the season on a high note, while Chelsea was left to reflect on missed opportunities and what might have been. The match highlighted both City’s strength and the challenges Chelsea will face as they seek to compete at the highest level in the Premier League this season.
