This episode occurred in the 2023-24 Champions League edition, where his judgment was crucial for the white team\u2019s qualification to the final.<\/p>  <h3>The controversial goal annulled to Bayern Munich in the return leg of the &#8216;semis&#8217; of the 2023-24 Champions League<\/h3>  <p><strong>Szymon Marciniak<\/strong>&#8216;s judgment was key for <strong>Real Madrid<\/strong> to secure their ticket to the final of the <strong>UEFA Champions League 2023-24<\/strong>. It is worth remembering that the Pole was the referee in charge of officiating the return leg of the &#8216;semis&#8217; of that tournament last season, where the merengues faced <strong>Bayern Munich<\/strong>.<\/p>  <p>The <strong>Real Madrid<\/strong> ended up winning 2-1 with a brace from <strong>Joselu<\/strong>,<strong>&nbsp;<\/strong>answered by a goal from <strong>Alphonso Davies<\/strong>, leaving the series with an aggregate score of 4-3 in favor of the Chamart\u00edn side. This counting the 2-2 draw in the first leg at the Allianz Arena.<\/p>  <p>In this match, what exactly happened? Referee <strong>Szymon Marciniak<\/strong> decided to annul a goal by <strong>Matthijs de Ligt<\/strong> in the final moments of the match, a goal that would have meant a tie in the series and, consequently, an extension of the match into extra time. <a data-external=\"0\" data-intl-links-en=\"https:\/\/www.fcbarcelonanoticias.com\/en\/champions-league\/brutal-controversy-bayern-tie-discount-referee-annulled-due-to-alleged-offside_303344_102.html\" data-intl-links-es=\"https:\/\/www.fcbarcelonanoticias.com\/champions-league\/polemica-brutal-bayern-empato-descuento-arbitro-anulo-por-presunto-offside_303344_102.html\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fcbarcelonanoticias.com\/en\/champions-league\/brutal-controversy-bayern-tie-discount-referee-annulled-due-to-alleged-offside_303344_102.html\" rel=\"follow\" target=\"_self\" title=\"Scandal at the Bernab\u00e9u!

If the review showed that the play was legal, the goal should have been validated; otherwise, it would have been annulled, without it representing a major problem.<\/p>  <p>However, by <strong>Marciniak<\/strong> hastily stopping the play, the action became void without giving VAR the opportunity to review the play from different angles. At first glance, it seemed that the goal could have been valid, but without the ability to evaluate it properly, a decision was made detrimental to <strong>Bayern Munich<\/strong>&#8216;s intentions to stay alive in that tie.<\/p>  <h2>The annulled goal to Chelsea in the quarter-finals of the 2021-22 Champions League<\/h2>  <p>Not only that, it is also important to remember that in the 2021-22 season, <strong>Marciniak<\/strong> also played a decisive role in some way for <strong>Real Madrid<\/strong> to advance in the <strong>UEFA Champions League<\/strong>.<strong>&nbsp;<\/strong>On that occasion, it is worth going back to the return leg of the quarter-finals of the Champions League.<\/p>  <p>Despite the fact that the merengues had won the first leg 3-1 at Stamford Bridge, at the Santiago Bernab\u00e9u the Londoners managed to put up a fight and scored three goals, countered by two from Real Madrid, which could have taken the match into extra time.<\/p>  <p>In this context, the crucial intervention of <strong>Marciniak<\/strong> occurred when Chelsea could have won the tie in regular time.
