Controversy resolved: This is why the missed penalty that sent Dortmund off was repeated

There will be controversy for a while, certainly more in Germany than in England, after the Borussia Dortmund was eliminated in the round of 16 matches Chelsea for a punishment recorded by Kai Havertz which was previously ordered to be repeated after failure.

The play started with some controversy. With a cross into the area, the players of Chelsea they protested that Wolf touched the ball with his hand, something that was evident in the replays and led the referee Danny Mackelie by pointing to the fatal spot after watching the replays.

});

Yes, that was traumatic, but that was what followed. Kai Havertz, after making a feint, fooled Alexander Meyer but had the misfortune to send his shot against the post. The ball was rejected and cleared by a Dortmund player, which seemed to be round, but again the VAR called the order and sent him to repeat, so that he scored this time yes Havertz.

Emre Can, furious after the game, took a massive crack at Makkelie, whom he pointed to as the direct culprit of the elimination against Chelsea.

What does the standard say?

With the regulations in place, fair or not, the truth is that the Dutch referee was right in his decision. He Dortmund protested that chilwell He also entered the area early, but that was not decisive in his favor. “If a player from each team commits a violation, the penalty will be repeated”explains the regulations, so no other decisions will be made.
