This was the goal disallowed by VAR for Bayern Munich against Boca Juniors.

The entire Boca Juniors team endured moments of nerves and tension at the start of their match against Bayern Munich in the second round of Group C of the Club World Cup . The Bavarian team had taken the lead, but it was met with much controversy.

The sequence that stopped the hearts of the Xeneize world occurred seven minutes into the first half , in the first dangerous moment of an exciting and highly entertaining match. It all began after a well-closed defense by the Argentine team that ended with a corner kick, through which Bayern Munich struck.

French forward Michael Olise took the corner from the right, narrowly missing the Boca Juniors penalty area. Agustín Marchesín failed to contain the shot, and the ball ended up in the back of the net. However, Argentine protests were swift.

Automatically, the VAR called the main referee Alireza Faghani, and showed him what happened: when the ball was hit by the attacker, Serge Gnabry made a basketball screen to the goalkeeper Agustín Marchesín, preventing him from coming out to block the cross.

The situation was so unclear that Olise himself didn't celebrate the goal and looked repeatedly at the referee. Once the referee reviewed the match, Faghani wasted no time in making the correct decision, disallowing what could have been a 1-0 scoreline.

However, the disallowed goal didn't demoralize the German team, who didn't take much longer to take the lead with a goal, now valid, from Harry Kane. For Boca, it was a wake-up call , and a warning of the difficult night they would have to endure if they wanted to dream of a surprise victory against one of the strongest teams in the world.
