What happened. Manchester United boss Michael Carrick says Howard Webb's apology for the VAR error that allowed Erling Haaland's Manchester derby goal to stand 'doesn't mean an awful lot'. Webb admitted the mistake, blaming 'tunnel vision', and stood down VAR officials Matt Donohue and Blake Antrobus until after the international break.

• Enzo Fernandez was in an offside position and interfering with play before Haaland's goal.
• Carrick still has faith in VAR but expects marginal decisions to even out.
• United have lost half of their six games in all competitions this season.
