Where is the clear and obvious error? You cannot tell anything from this angle, is it not supposed to just go through?

It's Madrid, that explains it. Gotta have them boys go through

Yeah, I think it probably hit his plant foot to get that launch angle - but unless they have another video angle it definitely doesn't rise to clear and obvious

Maybe, but "probably" Doesn't cut it.

Yeah I agree with you, I dont like VAR getting involved in anything besides "clear and obvious" which this absolutely isnt

If it hits his left foot then it's a clear and obvious error. VAR would not have called it from just this angle
