UEFA finally speaks on Manchester United VAR penalty decision against PSG

Rashford Penalty against PSG in Champions League

The Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) supports the VAR decision to award Manchester United penalty which kicked Paris St-Germain out of the Champions League.

Okay Nigeria recalls that the decision came after PSG defender Kimpembe was penalised for handball in the final minute as referee Damir Skomina ruled he had blocked Diogo Dalot’s shot with his arm after watching replays.

However, the governing body of football in Europe supported the decision explaining that the distance the ball covered was “not short” and Kimpembe’s arm was “not close” to his body.

UEFA also added that, “the impact could therefore not be unexpected” and “the defender’s body [was made] bigger thus resulting in the ball being stopped from travelling in the direction of the goal.

“The referee, therefore, awarded a penalty kick.

“Given that the referee did not recognise the incident clearly during live play [referred to as serious missed incident in the VAR protocol] an on-field review was conducted.”

After being awarded the penalty, Marcus Rashford scored to earn United a 3-1 win on the night and send them through on away goals.

what is the most frightening thing that you have ever seen happen in life

It’s a man looking over his family during the British Raj in India. There were many cases of cannibalism and he feared someone would try to kill and eat his children or wife. I acknowledge this is a difficult picture to look at— but I included it for a reason. Many people in the US/West aren’t even aware of the terrible famines that swept through India and which are comparable to the holocaust in deaths (an estimated ~30 million people have died in famines in India). This was taken from the Great Famine of 1876–1878, which was far worse than the infamous Bengal Famine. It was caused by a crop failure/drought and was exacerbated by the crown’s export of wheat abroad. In total, 5.6 - 9 million people died (it’s hard to get exact figures). And within huge statistics like these, are forgotten stories. These are individuals and families, who slowly faced the despair of knowing they had no food and would have no food in the near future. They faced the horror of knowing there was ...
