And the referee, who previously administered the World Cup matches, continued, “The assistant referee raised his flag for an offside case, and the goal was subsequently canceled, as it turned out that Nuno Mendes, when he received that pass, was in an offside position, slightly ahead of Miltiao (Real Madrid’s defender).”
He pointed out that “the referee was following the second defender with high concentration and accuracy, who was able to raise his flag after scoring the goal, and the attack ended.”
Jamal Sharif said, “It was confirmed whether the assistant referee’s decision was correct or not, and therefore the video technology supported the decision completely, and therefore the assistant referee’s decision was correct in the presence of an offside case, so Mbappe’s goal was canceled, because Nuno Mendes when he received that pass was in a clear offside position, so he was The ruling is correct.”

Regarding not calculating a penalty kick in favor of Paris Saint-Germain, Sharif added, “In the 56th minute, a ball directed towards Mbappe, who is advancing inside the penalty area bypassing Miltiao, where Alaba pressured him, after he approached him cautiously.”
He continued, “At the moment that Mbabi made the shot, Alaba was able to glide, cut the shot ball towards the goal, and of course friction occurred, which is normal, as Alaba made the glide and reached the ball, and was able to block the shot ball towards the goal, and the referee’s decision It was correct to keep playing, because there was no offense.”

As for the equalizing goal for Real Madrid, Sharif explained in the 61st minute when Real Madrid scored the equalizing goal, following a ball in the possession of Paris Saint-Germain goalkeeper Donnarumma, where Benzema pressured the goalkeeper, who returned to the ball and Benzema at that moment extended his foot and leg forward towards the ball. So, the contact with the goalkeeper’s left thigh occurred on Benzema’s thigh from the back, which was in the air extended to play the ball. Play”.

Real Madrid’s second goal also raised questions, to be resolved by former international referee Jamal Sharif, saying, “In the 76th minute, a correct goal for Benzema, who was in the offside position, after a through pass from Modric, from outside the penalty area into it, and Benzema was in a correct position. Because Achraf Hakimi was covering, and therefore a valid target for Benzema.”
