After Steven Mandanda kept the initial scoring chance out, Paris Saint-Germain followed that with another opportunity to find the back of the net. However, the shot went off a Marseille’s Boubacar Kamara arm, which led many to believe a penalty-kick would be awarded. 

However, after the referee went to check Video Assisting Referee, the call on the field stood. Les Parisiens wouldn’t be receiving a penalty-kick opportunity, which caused many to have a puzzled look on their face. 

Let us know what you think of the VAR call.
