Disallowed Chelsea "goal" in the last seconds of the game.
Incident starting at 7:44 in the clip.
Commentators (I think) starting to suggest it might have been for a push by Kerr but it pretty much can't be because the referee has raised her arm - they also say the flag has gone up and no AR is going to be giving a foul when the referee is so much closer.
So it had to have been given for offside (interfering with an opponent) by the offside-positioned Kerr. However I don't see that she's affected an opponent's ability to play the ball. For me, the ball was so far over both their heads (and behind them) that the defender never had a chance of playing the ball.
Thoughts?
Then there's the two almost identical challenges on the very edge of the penalty area - Chelsea given a free kick outside the area, Real Madrid given a penalty.
