FIFA concludes on Germany's disallowed goal
The International Football Federation (FIFA) provided clarifications regarding the decision to disallow Germany's goal in a match against Paraguay during the 2026 World Cup, which was made after a Video Assistant Referee (VAR) review due to an error by Paraguay's goalkeeper. The country sparked controversy over the validity of the decision after television replays showed a German player pushing the goalkeeper, despite minimal contact. FIFA's Head of Refereeing confirmed that the new instructions focus on taking a firm stance against interventions aimed at disrupting the opponent's movement without attempting to play the ball, in order to protect goalkeepers and reduce time-wasting.
