Denmark saw their goal disallowed for… milliseconds and a few minutes later awarded a VAR penalty with the result to be eliminated by Germany 2-0 in the “16” of Euro 2024. The coach of the losers, Kasper Hulmantput them after the end of the match with… technology.
“I want to congratulate Germany, we were under pressure in the first fifteen minutes. Afterwards, it was more even, but this match was decided by two VAR decisions“, commented the experienced technician and added: “Our goal was disallowed by a centimeter, I have the picture here, we shouldn’t use VAR like that. And less than a minute later, Germany were awarded that penalty (sic for handball in the area by Joachim Andersen, who had scored earlier). I can’t stand these ridiculous decisions anymore. We can’t ask our defenders to run without using their hands. In this situation, there is nothing unnatural, he jumps and the ball hits his hand. I rarely talk about refereeing, but here, he clearly judged the course of the match. It’s very disappointing for my team. If we had gone 1-0 up, it would have changed everything. Football shouldn’t be like this».
