The joy of the striker born in 1998 was extinguished when the semi-automatic offside technology identified Nuno Mendes’ error in the attack in the 82nd minute.

In the 82nd minute, Nuno Mendes broke through on the left wing and stretched it to the right level for Kylian Mbappe to cushion close to the wall, defeating Yann Sommer.

The French striker celebrates passionately with Neymar. Referee Michael Oliver also pointed to the middle of the field to recognize the goal for the home team.

However, with the help of semi-automatic offside detection technology, the VAR team detected Mendes’ offside error. The Portuguese defender’s legs and head were raised higher than that of the last Bayern defender. This is a new technology applied for the first time in this year’s Champions League season.

Mbappe could not hide his disappointment when the goal was denied.

Before that, PSG’s No. 7 also hit Bayern’s net after a close-up phase. However, he did not celebrate because he observed the line referee raising the flag for offside.

In the match against Bayern, Mbappe came on from the bench because he had just recovered from an injury. With only 30 minutes on the field, the defending World Cup runner-up made the Bayern defense wobble with powerful breakthroughs from the left wing.

Coach Christophe Galtier needs to calculate Mbappe to be in the best shape for the second leg at Bayern’s home field on March 9. Since the away goals rule is no longer in use, the Ligue 1 champions need to win by 2 or more goals to progress.
