Colombia vs. Ecuador: Yerry Mina scored the winning goal, but Diego Haro annulled it after reviewing the VAR | VIDEO

Shortly after the end of the duel, Yerry Mina scored the winning goal, but it was annulled by Diego Haro after reviewing it in the VAR and finding a hand in the Colombian defender’s area. The duel of Colombia vs. Ecuador ended in a goalless draw.

The Colombian team turned to attack against a very physically worn rival, found the goal at minute 99 in a play in which Mina, in the middle of several rivals, managed to get a creeping shot that no Ecuadorian saw where he entered.

However, Haro, who faced many challenges in this match, reviewed the VAR and after several minutes of deliberation, with the stadium abuzz, decided to annul the goal because the ball hit Mina’s hand before he took the shot.

The match ended with protests from the hosts and both Colombia and Ecuador missed the opportunity to get close to the Qatar 2022 World Cup and will have to continue fighting in the remaining six days.

Colombia and Ecuador drew 0-0 this Thursday at the Metropolitano stadium in Barranquilla for the eleventh day of the Qatar 2022 World Cup Qualifiers, a duel marked by the decisions of the VAR and the suspense that resulted in the cancellation of a goal by Yerry Mina in minute 99.

The crash and the strong game set the pace of the match, in which the Peruvian referee had to appeal to the VAR to annul the late scoring of the coffee growers for a hand from the defender and a penalty that had already been called for La Tri in the second half for an out of place in the previous play.
