by Netherlands coach Ronald Koeman believes a goal was incorrectly ruled out in a 0-0 draw with France in the European Championship.After France’s goalie stopped Depay’s shot in the 69th minute, Xavi Simons, who felt he had scored, blasted inside the right post.
A VAR check revealed Denzel Dumfries was offside, preventing Maignan from saving Xavi’s shot. The linesman raised a flag, but Koeman deemed it a legal goal as Dumfries wasn’t disturbing the goalkeeper, as he wasn’t disturbing the goalkeeper.
The speaker disagrees with the VAR check taking five minutes, stating that Dumfries is not disturbing the goalkeeper. France counterpart Didier Deschamps agrees but believes Dumfries is clearly obstructing the goalkeeper.
Deschamps initially believed the goal was a no-brainer, but Simons expressed disappointment after the draw and expressed disappointment with the goal not being allowed.
