April 10, New Delhi: Barcelona has filed a complaint with UEFA regarding a "serious lack of VAR intervention" during their 2-0 Champions League defeat to Atletico Madrid on Wednesday.
Hansi Flick's team was denied a penalty in the 54th minute of the first leg of the quarter-final when Atletico defender Marc Pubill handled the ball in the box. Pubill, who had already received a yellow card, stopped the ball with his hand after goalkeeper Juan Musso appeared to restart play with a goal kick.
Barcelona players appealed for a penalty, but referee Istvan Kovacs allowed play to continue, and Video Assistant Referee Christian Dingert did not intervene.
