The Champions has just confirmed the appalling VAR Error that was made by referees during the play between Bayern Munich and Chelsea. The Champions League is currently under scrutiny due to the shocking VAR mistake that was made by The Referee that occurred during the match after Cole Palmer goal was rules as Offside

Chelsea’s manager, Enzo Maresca, praised his team’s performance against Bayern Munich, despite suffering a 3-1 defeat in their Champions League opener. Maresca acknowledged that Bayern were a top-notch side, but felt that his team showed promise, particularly in the second half when they created better chances. He highlighted the importance of learning to play for the full 95 minutes, as Chelsea’s energy levels seemed to dip towards the end of the match.

Cole Palmer, who scored Chelsea’s goal, echoed Maresca’s sentiments, stating that the team deserved more from the match. Palmer noted that Chelsea’s lack of concentration and failure to manage key moments cost them dearly. However, he remained optimistic, emphasizing that the team had shown they could compete against one of the best teams in the competition.

Harry Kane, speaking after the match, was pleased with Bayern’s performance, praising his teammates for their intensity and quick movement with and without the ball. Kane scored two goals for Bayern, including a well-taken strike into the far corner.

The defeat means that Chelsea will face a tough challenge in their next match against Benfica at home. With Barcelona and tough trips to Italy on the horizon, Chelsea will need to regroup and improve their performance if they are to stand any chance of progressing in the Champions League.

In a post-match interview, Maresca also expressed his frustration with the referee’s decision to give Jonathan Tah a yellow card for his foul on Joao Pedro, feeling that it should have been a red card given the nature of the challenge. Despite the setback, Maresca remained upbeat about his team’s prospects, highlighting their mobility and talent as key strengths that will serve them well in the competition.

The match showcased Chelsea’s youthful energy and talent, but also exposed their inexperience and tendency to make mistakes. The Blues will look to learn from their mistakes and come out stronger in their next match, with the aim of securing a positive result against Benfica.
