A masked fan disrupted a Bundesliga 2 match by unplugging a VAR monitor while referee Felix Bickel was set to review a penalty decision during Preussen Munster’s 2-1 defeat against Hertha Berlin. The club confirmed that the fan illegally entered the pitch, leaving Bickel unable to check the screen, which was blank. The VAR official in Cologne ruled a foul, leading to a penalty that Hertha converted. Preussen Munster condemned the incident, indicating it was likely premeditated, as a banner reading “Pull the plug on VAR” was displayed by fans.
