The referee admits error – Scandal without consequences: the VAR has allowed to encourage with Austria

“Punishment must be given, but I don’t understand this anyway!”
Back in Klagenfurt: Austria looked fresh and took command with 61 percent possession. Fitz (21st) and Fischer (39th, 51st) missed good chances, while Sahin-Radlinger made a strong save from Binder (36th). Before manager Stephan Helm showed a golden touch, Andi Gruber redeemed Austria 16 minutes after coming on as a substitute and also showed his technical skills with the golden goal. After a perfect pass from Fitz, the 29-year-old picked up the ball ideally and scored straight into the left corner with his right foot (77′). “We are all very relieved, the victory is well deserved. The penalty should be given, but I don’t understand it anyway,” said Fischer.
