The record for 11-meter penalties improved in the World Championships

The World Cup in Russia has already entered the history books.

11-meter penalties are very often awarded in the World Cup and yesterday the tournament record was broken.

In the match between Portugal and Iran in Group B, forward Cristiano Ronaldo had the opportunity to outplay the opponent's goalkeeper, but Ali Beiranvand, the veteran, caught the ball.

It was already the 19th record penalty in the tournament.

The VAR system started to have a huge influence on the referees' decisions.

The referee consulted with the assistants and even 8 penalties were given.
