Fans were left bewildered after RB Leipzig’s Benjamin Sesko had a goal controversially ruled out against Real Madrid in the Champions League.
Sesko found the net with a header but the goal wasn’t allowed to stand due to a slight nudge from the forward on goalkeeper Andriy Lunin.
It was initially deemed that Sesko, who was standing behind Lunin, was offside but the 20-year-old was then somewhat harshly penalised for catching the goalkeeper.
The sides were level at 0-0 in the first leg of the round of 16 clash when Sesko thought he had put Leipzig in front.
There was further frustration to come for Lepizig, with Real Madrid taking the lead in the second half through Brahim Diaz.
