The article discusses the controversial goal disallowance during the World Cup match between Portugal and Croatia. The goal was initially awarded by the referee but later overturned by the Video Assistant Referee (VAR) system. The decision was based on data from sensors in the official ball, which indicated contact between Croatian player Igor Matanović and the ball. However, the article highlights concerns that the visual evidence was unclear, and some analysts argue that the decision contradicts FIFA’s guidelines requiring clear visual proof for overturning goals. Spanish sports newspaper Mundo Deportivo criticizes the ruling, calling it one of the biggest scandals of the tournament and suggesting that the Norwegian referee, Espen Eskas, made an incorrect call. The article raises questions about whether technological data should override visual evidence in such situations.
