Overview
- In the 16th minute, Kilian Fischer’s shot for Wolfsburg appeared to deflect off RB Leipzig midfielder Assan Ouédraogo’s raised hand inside the box.
- Referee Dr. Robin Braun consulted VAR and let play continue without a penalty after an initial goal-kick signal.
- The DFL told Sky it found no image that showed the handball with 100 percent clarity, so the on-field decision stood.
- Coach Paul Simonis and captain Maximilian Arnold criticized the non-call, describing it as a clear handball that should have led to a spot kick.
- Leipzig won 1–0 on an eighth-minute goal by Johan Bakayoko, leaving Wolfsburg on five points from five matches and sitting 12th.
