A masked fan unplugged a VAR monitor during a Bundesliga 2 match between Preussen Muenster and Hertha Berlin on Sunday, forcing the referee to rely on a remote decision-maker who upheld a penalty call that led to Hertha's eventual 2-1 victory. Muenster said the incident appeared planned, as fans simultaneously displayed a banner reading "Pull the plug on VAR," and the club pledged to implement security measures to prevent similar disruptions.
