Germany Eliminated from World Cup After Controversial VAR Disallowance, Lose to Paraguay on Penalties

Germany were eliminated from the World Cup in the round of 16, losing to Paraguay on penalties after a VAR decision disallowed Jonathan Tah's potential winning goal in extra time. Pundits including Alan Shearer, Jürgen Klopp, Pat Nevin and Darren Cann all agreed Germany were harshly treated by the call. Germany manager Julian Nagelsmann called the decision a scandal. The match ended goalless after extra time before Paraguay won in the shootout.

Was the VAR decision to disallow Tah's goal correct?

Rural estates and farmhouses are now displacing urban prestige addresses as the ultimate status symbol among the global elite.
