The ref on the field did originally give the goal.The var ref, nor the onfield, can't turn a blind eye to this though. They get marked on their performances, they would pay a price.
You also have to be fair to other teams, as in golf where it's the field. It affects both teams goal difference, Sunderland would not be happy to see Slob on the pitch in the week. You can't see the game in isolation
I agree it was the right decision by the laws of the game
