Juventus: Sets the tone on VAR scandal decision
Juventus will not officially follow up on the scandalous referee and VAR decision in the game against Salernitana for the time being.
Two days after the unimaginable decision that decided the match between Juventus and Salernitana, the “old lady” hasn’t made any announcement, although even the Italian Referees’ Association justified her.
Arkadiusz Milik’s offside goal, despite the Polish striker being cleared by a player, was the focus of discussions for two days by all Italian football federations, with the exception of the Bianconeri leadership.
According to Tuttosport, the official Juventus want to soften ahead of the game against Benfica for the Champions League and the next games of Serie A, where they are already behind in the standings.
On an unofficial level, the club’s people are in constant contact with the football authorities, although the replay scenario does not offer any realistic chances.
It is recalled that the goal did not count because it was attributed to Leonardo Bonucci for offside, although the Italian stopper was dozens of meters from the ball and did not affect the situation and although there was a Salernitana player Antonio Candreva. who even reported on Bonucci. The VAR system failed to recognize Candreva’s position because, according to the referee’s link, footage from the specific camera showing the position of the Salernitana player was not available.
