Yakin condemns VAR decision that led to yellow card
In the 72nd minute, Embolo received a second yellow card after a VAR review revealed a player‑identity mix‑up. Referee Silva Pinheiro initially cautioned Paredes, then mistakenly applied the card to Embolo.
Yakin described the sanction as “completely baseless,” questioning both the referee and VAR process. The Swiss side argues the decision unfairly altered the match outcome.
