Early morning of June 5, Portugal won the right to enter the UEFA Nations League final after a 2-1 victory over Germany thanks to Cristiano Ronaldo's decisive goal.

The two European giants created an extremely dramatic match, when the score was 1-1, the turning point came in the 68th minute.

Nuno Mendes and Ronaldo had a good coordination. Mendes made a pass to Ronaldo to easily tap the ball into the net, bringing victory to Portugal.

Immediately, the German players surrounded the referee in a loud protest and demanded an offside. However, the linesman kept his flag up and did not give any signal in real time.

However, slow-motion replays later on television showed that Ronaldo appeared to be in an offside position, causing great doubt from fans.

What's special is that at the UEFA Nations League, the semi-automatic VAR technology, which was successfully applied at the World Cup, was used. In just a few short seconds, the final decision was made: Ronaldo's goal was completely valid.

A digital image is then displayed, clearly illustrating Ronaldo's position under the ball (on-side) at the moment the pass was made.

It’s worth noting that the VAR analysis looks significantly different to the angles fans see on television. While it’s possible that the camera position made Ronaldo appear offside when he wasn’t, this is the type of goal that’s routinely ruled out when VAR uses manual line-marking technology.

Although the semi-automatic VAR system almost certainly made the correct decision thanks to the advancement of technology, this still cannot assuage the skepticism from fans.

Many conflicting opinions have exploded on social media platforms like X, showing their difficulty in accepting the final decision, despite the intervention of modern technology.
