While it seemed almost impossible to distinguish at the time, and from different angles, it seems that Atletico Madrid star Julian Alvarez brushed the ball with his standing foot before he shot his penalty during the shooting on Wednesday evening. However, various Real Madrid stars currently demonstrated eagle-eyes vision.
The decision not to allow the goal would eventually cost atletico Madrid their place in the quarterfinals of the Champions League, while Los Blancos is preparing for Arsenal after the international break. It might not happen that way if it was not for various Real Madrid stars who raised the attention of the officials on it. Rodrygo goes out of his perspective the incident.
“It was funny, I was sitting on the couch with my teammates who looked at him and the way the ball came out of his boots was very strange, as if he had touched it twice,” he told TNT Sports Brasil, as quoted by Cadena Ser.
“We had a camera behind us and they started screaming:” Two details, two details. ” And we started to put pressure on the referee, and yes, I had never seen that before. “
In the meantime, images have also emerged from Kylian Mbappe who signaled 'two' just after the penalty, who also seem to be tackling the movement.
Goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois also pointed to the incident on the assistant referee at that time.
“The moment he shoots, I think he will hit it twice. I told the referee and then the linesman. He told me that they keep an eye on him because everyone keeps an eye on him, “he told Marca.
“It's not easy to see, and it's bad luck for them. Then Correa was bad luck for me, I couldn't get it out. We did not play our best game, but we have come through, and that is what is important. “
Courtois would then express much less sympathy for Atletico. Although the images did not look through it, UEFA has since released the view from their camera and an official declaration of the decision that seems somewhat clearer. It is impossible to know whether the VAR was assessed before the officials were warned on the field, but it could have made the difference.
