Champions League VAR official stood down after controversial penalty against Newcastle in PSG match | UK News<\/p>\n

The VAR official involved in the decision to award a penalty to Paris St Germain against Newcastle for a controversial handball has been stood down from his game on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Tomasz Kwiatkowski asked referee Szymon Marciniak to go to the screen after he reviewed a potential handball by Newcastle defender Tino Livramento during Tuesday night’s match.<\/p>\n

The referee did not give the penalty on-field, but reversed the decision after looking at the incident on the screen.<\/p>\n

Kwiatkowski was due to be the VAR official in Wednesday’s Champions League game between Real Sociedad and Salzburg but has now been replaced, Sky Sports News reported.<\/p>\n

Newcastle<\/strong> looked to be heading for a famous 1-0 win in Paris<\/strong> until the penalty was awarded against Livramento, allowing Kylian Mbappe to level in the eighth and final minute of added time.<\/p>\n

Speaking on Sky’s Soccer Special, former Spurs manager Tim Sherwood labelled the decision “disgusting”, while Newcastle boss Eddie Howe said referee Marciniak should have been stronger to disregard Kwiatkowski’s advice.<\/p>\n

Howe said the referee had been placed under “extreme” pressure by the PSG players, and later labelled the decision “poor”.<\/p>\n

Had Newcastle won, they would have had their Champions League destiny in their own hands.<\/p>\n

Instead, they must now beat AC Milan in their final group game and hope Dortmund get at least a point against PSG to progress to the knockout stages.<\/p>\n

IFAB, who set out the laws of world football, have laid out guidelines on what does and doesn’t constitute a handball offence – though leagues also have their own individual interpretations.<\/p>\n

More generally, for the purposes of determining handball offences, the upper boundary of the arm is in line with the bottom of the armpit. Not every touch of a player’s hand\/arm with the ball is an offence.<\/p>\n

It is an offence if a player:
\u2022 deliberately touches the ball with their hand\/arm, for example moving the hand\/arm towards the ball
\u2022 touches the ball with their hand\/arm when it has made their body unnaturally bigger. A player is considered to have made their body unnaturally bigger when the position of their hand\/arm is not a consequence of, or justifiable by, the player’s body movement for that specific situation. By having their hand\/arm in such a position, the player takes a risk of their hand\/arm being hit by the ball and being penalised
\u2022 scores in the opponents’ goal: Directly from their hand\/arm, even if accidental, including by the goalkeeper or immediately after the ball has touched their hand\/arm, even if accidental<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
