Bellingham clearly got the ball and Ederson then booted Bellingham.VAR could not intervene as the whistle has blown before Bellingham's effort had crossed the line.Watch the moment below:

That is just so, so harsh on Dortmund.

To make matters even worse for Bellingham, he was actually booked for that challenge.

Many raged on Twtter, including former Liverpool striker Stan Collymore.

"Embarrassing that this isn't a goal by Bellingham. Just embarrassing. Struggling to understand so many decisions in the sport today. This is just not fair or right or even remotely an infringement," Collymore wrote.

While Jadon Sancho, who is injured and is not playing for Dortmund, wrote on Twitter: "This Ref needs checking!"

That goal should never have been disallowed. It could be a massive decision in the outcome of the tie.
