Interestingly, the referees committee of UAF expressed its position on the situation regarding the non-awarding of a goal to 'Shakhtar' in the match against 'Koloss' in the Premier League.
According to the comment, the non-awarding of the goal occurred due to a violation of the rules of the game - the 'offside' position of a 'Shakhtar' player. According to the protocol and recommendations for VAR, it is mandatory to check the initial phase of the attack for each scored goal. In this episode, it was found that player number 6 of 'Shakhtar', who was in an 'offside' position, interfered with the game during the check. Due to technical problems with VAR, it took a lot of time to confirm the decision regarding the cancellation of the goal. However, this time was completely compensated at the end of the match.
