Manchester City managed to avoid defeat in Madrid, against Real, in the first match of the semi-finals of the Champions League – 1:1.
“Citizens” deserved this draw with their game, but they got there with a goal that should be annulled.
Namely, at the beginning of the action, the ball went out to Bernardo Silva, but the referees did not interfere… Later, neither did VAR.
Former Arsenal coach Arsène Wenger commented on all this live.
“The VAR should have checked whether Bernardo Silva controlled the ball outside the field before Manchester City’s goal,” he said – and he was right!
3D technology confirmed that the ball was indeed out of bounds, VAR did not react, and Ancelotti was furious for a reason…
See what it looked like…
