He VAR It was born as a tool to make football fairer, but more and more cases are questioning this issue and it is in LaLiga EA Sports where it happens recently.
But, looking at other leagues one can realize that this is not just a Spanish thing. Even in the Africa Cup there was a completely unprecedented situation that gave a radical turn to the tie between Nigeria, who ended up being a finalist, and South Africa.
Jose Peseiro’s team went ahead after scoring after the hour mark Troost-Ekong from a penalty (67′), but the strangest chapter is yet to happen. At a discount, and at a short-term counter, Victor Osimhen the act of attacking by Nigeria to confirm your place in the final.
However, this is not so. Referee Amin Mohamed Omar was called by VAR to review an action that took place in the Nigerian area before starting the counterattack and decided to disallow the Naples player’s goal and award a penalty in favor of South Africa, who equalized with Mokoena (90′) and forced the extension to the stupor of the Nigerian fans, who could not believe what was happening.
Fortunately for Nigeria, they finally qualified for the final on penalties and will play against Ivory Coast this coming Saturday.
