On Thursday (11th), the CBF released the VAR analysis of Memphis Depay’s goal against Cruzeiro in the first leg of the Copa do Brasil semifinal.
The play sparked complaints about a possible handball by the Corinthians player before he finished the ball into the net.
In the footage released by the CBF, the VAR team reviews the play from different angles and concludes that there was no irregularity.
Before authorizing the restart of the match, the on-field referee, Anderson Daronco, checks with the video assistants to confirm if they had reviewed a possible handball by Memphis.
See below how the review went:
