Newcastle beat Bournemouth 2-1 thanks to a second-half winner from Ciaran Clark, but Federico Fernandez has disputed whether it was in fact his goal.The centre-back pairing both scored last week against West Ham and the former Swansea man got onto the end of Jetro Willems’ cross to head the ball towards goal, with Clark seemingly providing a key touch to prevent Aaron Ramsdale from saving.

It is certainly a contentious one, with Clark’s contact on the ball marginal at best, leading Fernandez to tweet “VAR please I think it’s my goal” alongside ta video of the event.

Whether he means it or not the fans certainly seem to agree with him, suggesting that the Irishman didn’t make sufficient contact with the ball for it to be considered his goal.

No matter, supporters certainly won’t mind that both defenders are contributing at the other end of the pitch, particuarly when they combine for a winner.

Here are some of the reactions on Twitter to Fernandez’s claim.
