VfB Stuttgart striker Deniz Undav had a goal disallowed by VAR in the second half of a Champions League game against Juventus for handball.

The Bundesliga side thought they had taken the lead at minute 48 at the Allianz Stadium when Undav beat Mattia Perin at the near post.

However, there was a long, silent VAR check after the ball had gone in, and it eventually ruled out the goal for handball.

Football Italia is among the accredited media at the Allianz Stadium. You can follow the live action on the Football Italia LIVEBLOG.
