VAR AND REFEREE

In the recent UEFA Champions League
Incident Details
The Play: In the closing minutes of the game, with the score at 0-0, Wirtz went down in the penalty area after contact from Inter defender Alessandro Bastoni.
The Controversy: Replays showed Bastoni had a hold of Wirtz’s shirt for a moment, but the extent of the contact and whether it was enough to cause Wirtz to fall was heavily debated. Many, including former manager Fabio Capello, felt the contact was minimal and Wirtz exaggerated the fall to win the penalty.
The Ruling: After a lengthy VAR (Video Assistant Referee) review, the on-field referee was instructed to award a penalty to Liverpool and booked Bastoni.
The Result: Dominik Szoboszlai converted the resulting penalty kick in the 88th minute, securing a vital 1-0 away victory for Liverpool. The decision was a major talking point after the match, with Inter players and fans expressing significant anger at the call.
