France v Spain: video referee overrules offside decision twice - video -

Tonight’s friendly game between France and Spain at the Stade de France will be remembered as the new VAR (Video Assistant Referee) overruled two offside decisions made by the ‘human’ referee. The first offside decision was overruled in the first half as France star Griezmann bagged in a header though his assist-man Zurkawa was ruled off-side after that the whole team and the whole Stade de France had been celebrating the opener. The second wrong decision by the referee was taken in the second half when Gerard Deulofeu netted the second goal of the game to secure Spain’s win. The referee’s assistant call, yet again, was overruled by the VAR.
