Legendary football coach Arsène Wenger commented on the penalty kick awarded to Barcelona at the start of the first half.

The contact between Pau Cubarsi and Inter striker Lautaro Martinez was only noticed after the VAR review.

"I am very much against these types of penalty kicks.

I am also against using VAR to show slow-motion replays in such situations," said A. Wenger in the beIN Sports studio.
