Sergio Ramos headed and scored to make it 2-0, but the referee, subsequently supported by VAR, chopped off the goal for a millimetric offside from the Real Madrid captain.
Real Madrid ended up in disbelief after seeing how Sergio Ramos, against Levante, was ruled out for a millimetric offside that would have made it 0-2.
In the 70th minute of the match, Luka Modric hit a free-kick into the box from the left and the Real Madrid captain flew to head the ball and send it into the back of the net.
Ramos started to celebrate, who raised his arms, but the referee Luis Munuera Montero lifted his arm to signal that the action wasn't valid.
He hesitated between if there was a foul or offside, but the intervention from VAR showed that the latter was revised. It happens that the line drawn by the realisation did not solve absolutely any doubt.
To the eye, the red and blue lines representing defence and attack were overlapping each other. In other words, if there was offside, it was purely a matter of millimetres.
