The European Football Association “UEFA” issued an official statement related to the cancellation of the penalty carried by Julian Alvarez, the Atletico Madrid player, during his team’s match against Real Madrid in the Champions League this season.
“Atletico Madrid from the European Football Association inquired about the cancellation of the penalty kick by Julian Alvarez at the end of the Champions League against Real Madrid.”
He said that although the incident was slight, but the player touched the ball with his fixed foot before implementing the kick, and according to the current law (the laws of the game, Article 14.1), the VAAR Video Ruling (VAR) had to inform the ruling to cancel the goal.
The European Football Association will enter into discussions with the International Football Association (FIFA) and the International Football Association (IFAB) to determine whether the base should be reviewed in cases where the double touch is clearly unintended.
