The referees’ management admits that a “human error” was committed in scoring Thiago’s goal: “It was wrongly cancelled” | Jupiler Professional League

Minute 72.

Club Brugge increases the pressure after a poor match at KV Mechelen. It looks like he will have to work harder to get the three points against Brugge.

Substitute Nosa sees Thiago in the penalty area. The Club Brugge striker heads into the Tahrir goal. or not? Kevin Van Dam’s VAR system looked at the splinter, drew a line and ruled he was offside.

They cannot see a still image of the line drawn on the field. There doesn’t appear to be any sign of offside in the replay, so they grimace in bluish black.

And that’s true, as it turns out. The arbitration department admitted, in a tweet on Twitter, the error.

She said: “The video assistant referee had to intervene when Club Brugge’s goal was disallowed.” “Due to human error from the VAR, the goal was incorrectly disallowed.”

Another controversial phase in Belgian football proved decisive.

“Although I don’t even know if it’s debatable,” Simon Mignolet laughed sarcastically after the match. “Either the little backline was crooked, or it was always a valid goal.”

“We did enough as a team to win the game, although that’s not always enough in the current VAR era. So we’re disappointed.”

Coach Ronnie Deila is also not convinced of the validity of the video referee.

“From the pictures I saw, there was no offside by Thiago,” the Norwegian expressed his opinion at the press conference.

“If we can no longer trust the VAR in such matters, then we have a problem. If he continues to make such mistakes, we better stop.”

Can the club accept the match management error?
