It looked like the player confessed that it wasn't a goal in the centre circle to ref but the ref looked stunned and didn't know what to do so just carried on like a goal had been scored.
It wasn't given was it ? When the video starts, before the "goal", it's 1-0. Then when the ball, somehow, ends up in the net, the score changes to 2-0 before reverting back to 1-0 by the end of the video ?

Clive Allen (Crystal Palace at Coventry, 6 Sept 1980): Allen smashed a free-kick that hit the back stanchion and bounced out - without the officials spotting it had gone in. Palace lost 3-1. Freddie Sears (Crystal Palace at Bristol City, 15 Aug 2009): More misery for Palace after Sears' shot flew in and out of the goal after hitting the base of the goal. Referee Rob Shoebridge gave a goal kick, and Palace were beaten 1-0.
I've watched it again and kept pausing it when the ball hits the net, looks like its right on the corner where the sides meet, so the ends must have split.
Yes, gaping hole where the side and back sections meet. Surely that should have been found in the net checks they do at the start of the game and then at the start of the second half! Also, can`t believe not one defender saw it. The striker who headed it knew it didn`t go in because he put his hands on his head, total giveaway!
I had a goal disallowed once when I used to play Sunday football. A cross came over and I got up high and headed it and it clearly went in underneath the crossbar but the net was hanging down a bit off the hooks at the top and the ball sailed through the hole. Everyone saw it go in and I celebrated my "goal" but was stunned when the ref said no and gave a goal kick. I couldn`t believe what was happening I thought he had given it as a foul at first but then he tried to tell me it went over the bar. I was gutted as that would have been my 30th goal of the season lol
Would have been a strange one even if they had goal line technology as the ball didn`t cross the line. The ref would have been unsure if the technology was working correctly or not as he clearly didn`t see what had actually happened.
But wouldn't the technology show ball was in the net? Or does it show that the line had been broken, so if goes in from side or back it doesn't register?
GLT tracks if the ball crosses the line, not if the ball ends up in the net via the side netting, so it the GLT would have shown it the ball hadn't gone in
All very well offering to replay the game now because they know that that's not going to happen. The "goal scorer" obviously knew it wasn't a goal but chose not to be honest at the time.

Somehow honesty wouldn't come into the argument.
