Germany’s extra-time goal against Paraguay is ruled out following a VAR review that intervenes after Jonathan Tah appears to head the ball into the net. Multiple reports describe the same sequence: Tah believes he has scored to put Germany ahead, but officials review the incident using the Video Assistant Referee system before confirming whether the goal meets the match’s criteria. The review results in the goal being disallowed, meaning Germany do not take the lead from that effort. While the accounts focus on the timing and the role of VAR, they do not present differing storylines about Tah’s involvement—both sources attribute the disallowing decision to the VAR intervention after Tah’s claimed header in extra time. As a result, play continues without the goal being added to the scoreline. The specific reason for the disallowance is framed as the outcome of the VAR check rather than as a matter of debate over who scored, with both outlets emphasizing that Tah’s apparent goal is overturned on review.
