VAR overturns Burkardt's debut strike in Germany's Nations League clash

VAR ruled out Jonathan Burkardt's debut goal, cancelling the German side's celebration in the Nations League tie against Greece. The decision came after officials reviewed a midfield incident that had initially seemed to give the German team the lead.

The review focused on a four‑way battle for the ball in which a Greek player rose above two DFB defenders, missed a header and the ball fell onto Bischof’s arm. Bischof then started a counter‑attack that Jonathan Burkardt finished, having received an assist from Derry Scherhant.

With the goal disallowed, the match remained 0‑0 and play resumed with a free kick from the centre circle, leaving the German team level in the encounter.
