Barcelona manager, Hansi Flick has insisted that his team were denied a “ valid and clear goal” during Sunday’s La Liga defeat to Real Sociedad.
Barcelona striker, Robert Lewandowski thought he’d opened the scoring in the first half against Real Sociedad.
But he saw his effort disallowed by VAR, with the images appearing to show the Poland international was offside by a toenail.
However, it subsequently emerged that the VAR had confused Lewandowski’s boot with the defender’s and the goal should have stood.
Speaking on the development, Flick said at his post-match interview: “I saw the pictures and the decision was wrong, it’s valid goal.
“It’s very clear, the goal had to be valid.
“But we have to accept it, we shouldn’t blame the referee because we are all human and make mistakes… today was a big mistake.”
