Maguire's goal decision against Ipswich

The Manchester United versus Ipswich Town incident in the English Premier League concluded that defender Harry Maguire touched the ball with his hand during the build-up to the second goal, which was an unintentional touch. After a Video Assistant Referee (VAR) review, the goal was awarded despite the ball not hitting the hand directly in a deliberate manner, based on the rules of the game that allow for the scoring of an indirect own goal if a defender unintentionally intervenes. This decision sparked widespread controversy, with the Match Control Center affirming that the goal was legal under current laws, which include exceptions. It clarified that the law penalizes direct handball touches, while in cases of an indirect own goal, the goal is permitted if there is no direct offense. Gary Neville even acknowledged the need to reconsider this rule.
