Official: The Spanish Administrative Committee determined that Heysen s red card was a misjudgment, but VAR did not intervene correctly

September 17th The Spanish Technical Referees Committee announced its ruling for this round of matches, confirming that Heysen's red card was a misjudgment.

The Spanish Technical Referee Committee explained that Militon's position may make the foul not an obvious goal opportunity, so the Real Madrid central defender should have been shown a yellow card rather than a red card. The video description also mentioned that VAR should only intervene when "clear and obvious misjudgment". Since this penalty falls within the scope of referee Hill Manzano's subjective judgment and falls under the so-called "gray penalty" situation, it is correct for VAR to not intervene in and change the judgment.
