VAR Controversies Strike Bundesliga Clash Between Gladbach and Leipzig

Borussia Mönchengladbach was frustrated by VAR decisions in a 0-0 draw against Leipzig. A disallowed goal and a revoked penalty ended Mönchengladbach's winning streak. Leipzig stayed second in the Bundesliga, cutting Bayern's lead to five points, though Bayern has a game in hand.

In a goalless draw marred by controversial VAR decisions, Borussia Mönchengladbach faced disappointment as its match against Leipzig concluded without a winner. The Bundesliga clash saw Franck Honorat's goal disallowed for a marginal offside early in the second half, sparking frustration among home supporters.

The contentious atmosphere intensified when a penalty originally awarded to Gladbach was overturned after referee consultation. Willi Orbán's tackle on Shuto Machino resulted in no penalty, further enraging the crowd at Borussia-Park.

Despite these setbacks, Leipzig remained steadfast in second place, narrowing Bayern Munich's lead to five points, with the champions having an extra game to play. Gladbach's streak of Friday night frustrations continues, with their recent unbeaten run halted abruptly.
