What happened?
When Mbappé was getting ready to take the spot kick, he had to wait for the opposing team’s players to leave the box; afterward, the referee asked him to place the ball properly.
And, to everyone’s surprise, time kept ticking because VAR was still reviewing the play and there was a chance it could be overturned.
