The controversial play Offside
The contentious incident occurred in the 72nd minute when Argentina tied 1-1 with Switzerland and the European side was outplaying. Embolo, his striker amnontoed from the very first minute, went to confront a ball with Leandro Paredes while feigning an injury.
Portuguese referee Joao Pinheiro penalized the Argentinian midfielder for sending off Switzerland,
At this point VAR intervened, telling the referee there had been a mistake, as Paredes did not hit Embolo.
Peirho then took away the yellow card from Argentina's striker but instead gave him a second yellow and red card.
The referee applied the new rule of 'identity confusion' in which the VAR can intervene if the judge was mistaken about who committed the foul.
