Was it a penalty? PSG box incident sparks debate, have your say! 🤔 | OneFootball

Controversy in the air!

In the 32nd minute of the first half, Vitinha went to clear the ball, but his own teammate João Neves ended up blocking it inside the box!

Referee João Pinheiro, who is also from Portugal, however, didn’t call anything, sending the Bayern players into a frenzy!

According to TNT Brasil commentator Vitor Sérgio, it is not a penalty when the ball is kicked by a player’s own teammate.

On social media, however, people were very upset about the play and did think it was a penalty, just like former German referee Manuel Gräfe.

The arm moves into the ball’s path — and this time it was fully extended at shoulder height — and only after (!) the ball had been kicked. That is already 100% a penalty, but even more so in the context of the first leg — madness!

And even if it was done by a teammate, it is punishable according to FIFA rules, exactly as in this case!!
