Confusion was total. RB Leipzig In the first leg of the UEFA Champions League round of 16 against Real Madrid, they found themselves in unbeaten form two minutes into the game with a goal from Benjamin Cesko to open the series. 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 activated and the switcheroo, 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 the German's cries for a goal, furious at Cesko's condition.
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.
