With VAR, refereeing has changed a lot. Nowadays, men in black are asked not to act too quickly, especially when in doubt. But that’s not what happened at the end of the match, as Bayern Munich tried everything to snatch extra time in their semi-final second leg played on Real Madrid’s pitch.
DR
So, while the score was 2-1, De Ligt found the net. But the referee had whistled just before. The reason ? The fact that his linesman had indicated to him an offside position. The problem is that the attackers were all in a legal position, given the images and the virtual line subsequently drawn. But by following the decision of his assistant, Mr. Marciniak could no longer see the images and, therefore, validate the equalizer in stoppage time.
