    Very soft if not wrong free kick leading to a goal scored by Lyon, then also VAR intervention for offside, but I think rather hard for AR2 to see it.

    38' possible YC, not given.
    So far, a rater lenient approach, but definitely nothing challenging, so one must give the benefit of the doubt about referee's style.

    Penalty area incident (off the ball), hardm to see for referee, correct NO VAR intervention in my opinion (rather mutual and soft):

    Two yellow cards in a few minutes, both for reckless fouls.

    68'

    73'

    This allows us to say that Olofsson target in this game was not to end without cards.

    The free kick before Lyon goal in first half, then annulled for offside:

    And the disallowed goal:

    All players in regular position at the moment of the free kick, then another touch by attacker and teammate in offside. As very often happens, assistant referee unable to make any assessment due to the speed of the action.

    The offside annulled discussions about free kick before.
