Julian Alvarez Channel: Chief of Atletico Madrid Diego Simeone invites people not to scare “Decisions on Punishment | Football News
The head of Atletico Madrid, Diego Simeone, urged people not to be afraid to question the decision to exclude the Julian Alvarez penalty kick while defeating Real Madrid in the Champions League.
Real will now face Arsenal in the next round after being defeated by Atletico 4-2 on the video, but the result blocked the controversy after Alvarez – who was second on the criminal attackers list – saw his 12 -meter effort, which was disabled after VAR check.
Argentine striker succeeded his efforts under the crossbar, despite the skating, but saw that he had excluded more than a minute later when Var stated that he had touched the ball with both legs.
It was a decision that Simeone did not agree with, after questioning whether there was clear evidence that suggested that Alvarez had twice had contacted the ball.
He said at his press conference after the match, “Did you see that? Did you see that? Did he or not touch the ball?
“Don’t be afraid to talk. Are you afraid of being punished? If you are afraid, don’t say anything. Raise your hand if you think Julian knocked twice. No one? Nobody. Okay.
“Honestly, I won’t lie to you, eliminated as we were, it’s not easy to accept.”
Simeone continued, “I just saw a picture of a penalty kick. The referee said that when Julian stepped and hit, he touched the ball with his foot, but the ball did not move. It is something that was about whether it was the goal or not, but I am proud of my players.
“When he plant his foot and hits, the ball doesn’t even move. But if Var called him, I never saw the punishment he called, but it’s still valid, and he’ll see he touched him. I want to believe he’ll see him touch him.”
Acelotti: Alvarez’s decision was correct
The real boss Carlo Ancelotti also commented on the shooting, which followed after his side lost 1-0 in the second leg to make 2-2 to the aggregate, where he agreed with the decision to reject the punishment.
“I think they already discovered it on VAR when we hesitated. We didn’t warn them, not even because I didn’t understand. I saw a reprise and I think he touches him with my left foot, another touch.”
Cloud: The judge must be respected but we are not unhappy
Atleticov Marcos Llorenteas well as Lucas Vazquez For the opponent’s side in Madrid, he continued to miss, but either Antonio Rudiger shot that squeezed by the goalkeeper’s hands Jan Cloud to release his side to the quarterfinals.
Speaking after the game, the cloud discovered that the decision of the judges had to be “obeyed”, but emphasized how “the damage” was to coincide in this way from European elite competition.
“The judge’s decisions must be respected. I didn’t see her, but that’s probably true,” he said.
“It anyway is pity because [Thibaut] Courtois went to the opposite side and the ball would still enter, but this is football and we were unhappy. “
His colleague and former Atletico player Courtooiswho claimed that he advised Judge Szymon Marciniak to examine the sentence after he entered, he was less sympathetic after the game stated that it was a “bad luck” for their rivals.
He said, “I felt he touched the ball twice and told the judge. It’s not easy to see it. There was a little bad luck there.
“With technology, in the room of Var, which they have clearly seen, they have a lot of cameras and a lot of pictures.”
Lenglet: I’ve never seen something like this
Athletic defender Clement lenglet did not take a penalty in shooting after being replaced in the 91th minute for Robin Le Normand.
After looking at the side, the 29-year-old explained that he “never saw” such a decision in football, but like clouds, respected the choice of referees.
“We didn’t see the reproduction, but what happened is easy to understand,” Lenglet said.
“This is the first time to see the judge winging things like this. But if these are the rules we need to respect it. But this is not funny because we have achieved 4 penalties, the same as them, so this is the end of the cow.”
What did Spanish media say
SPORT
In the pictures, you can clearly see how the left foot is pulling for sliding and what is crystal clear is that it does not steam the ball after it shoots with your right foot.
And before. Well, at no point can you see that he didn’t give him a touch either.
In any case, either in VAR, they had a better picture than this – something that is not likely to be likely – or a match judge, Polish Marciniak was very poorly advised from the Var room.
There is no picture that absolutely clarifies nothing why they should not intervene in such a decisive action.
AS
It simply happens that Szymon Marciniak experienced the same situation, but he barely had the consequences: it was in the 2012 World Cup final, in which Argentina was named the world champion by defeating France in the criminal shooting.
Messi scored the first goal of the match.
The Argentine killed his shot and, if you look at the game carefully, the ball passes and touches his right leg. Marciniak acknowledged the goal …
