Archivo VAR analyzes Cubars' goal which was disallowed for offside
Atletico Madrid tonight scored a 4-0 victory over Barcelona in the first leg of the Spanish Cup semi-final, but a disallowed goal by Cubars sparked numerous reactions on social media.
The well-known website, "Archivo VAR", has published a detailed analysis of Cubarsí's disallowed goal, confirming that the offside decision was correct, writes IndeksOnline.
According to a millimeter-by-millimeter analysis, the moment Robert Lewandowski touches the ball, the Catalan defender is easily in front of the opposing defense's last line. Although the difference is minimal, the footage clearly shows that his position is beyond the allowed line.
"Archivo VAR" emphasizes that, despite the controversy, the decision to disallow the goal is in accordance with the current offside regulation. The analysis also evaluates the work of the VAR referees in this episode, considering their intervention to be correct./IndeksOnline/
