A controversial goal disallowed for Leipzig against Real Madrid

Confusion was total. RB Leipzig They found themselves two minutes into the game with a goal from Benjamin Cesko in the first leg of the UEFA Champions League round of 16 and home to Real Madrid in an unbeaten fixture. But it couldn't, as action was called off at the request of VAR. However, when the forward-finding shot begins, it seems to be on. What happened?

On reflection, when the shot starts, Cesco is effectively driven and a substitute, But the description notes that Andrei Lunin suffers from the intervention of Benjamin Heinrichs, who “annoys him” because he is attached to him. That is why they may have invalidated the victory.

The debate at the time was more about Henrichs' participation than Cesc's offside. Does he interfere with the activity that bothers Lunin? The referee and VAR understood and drowned out the cry for a goal from the Germans, furious at Cesko's position.

The rest is history: Brahim Diyas made the difference in the second half and the Merengue won the first leg (1-0) against the Germans.
