"Brugge have been robbed in a clear way,"
"His fourth goal should have gone on the scoreboard without a doubt."
"The striker is not needed at any time. He takes advantage of the mistake and does not even touch the goalkeeper,"
"It was Szczesny himself who made it look like it was a foul with contact. It wasn't, and in the end, it was decisive because it would have meant the victory of the Belgian team,"
Barcelona were held to a 3-3 draw by Club Brugge in the UEFA Champions League after a late, potentially decisive Brugge goal was disallowed. The incident occurred when goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny lost control of the ball near his own goal line and Club Brugge striker Vermant reacted to score. Referee Anthony Taylor, after VAR review, ruled that Vermant had fouled Szczesny while challenging for the loose ball and disallowed the goal. Marco van Basten criticized the decision, calling it a clear robbery and asserting that Szczesny exaggerated contact and the striker did not touch the goalkeeper, a decision that denied Brugge victory.
