For those who still doubted it, the VAR is not a miracle tool.

Already, because certain actions are still open to discussion after a hundred viewings (a hand in the penalty area for example).

But also because video arbitration can experience bugs.

This is what happened on Sunday evening in the 58th minute of the PSG – Troyes match.

The referee of the match Jérôme Brisard refused a goal to Neymar, which would have been the second of the evening for the Brazilian, and would have given the advantage to his team, when the score was 2-2 and was ultimately no longer due. to move.

The man in black wanted to review the action on the control screen at the edge of the Parc des Princes lawn, in order to determine whether or not Kylian Mbappé had made a mistake on the Trojan defender Erik Palmer-Brown just before the goal .

But due to a technical problem, Mr. Brisard could not verify anything at all.

He therefore relied on his video assistant, Clément Turpin, to whistle a foul (a stroller from the Frenchman from PSG on the American from ESTAC) and refuse the 100th achievement of the Brazilian with Paris.

As my grandfather used to say: “IT is great when it works!
