CTA upholds Mariezklena’s penalty against Carlos Alvarez

As we have already said this morning, one of the plays that the Referees Technical Committee will explain this Tuesday during the “Review Time” is a match that took place last Saturday at the Ciudad de Valencia Stadium. Levante and Real Sociedad.

This is the penalty committed by Mariez Klena to Carlos Alvarez Additional time in the second half. Specifically, in the 92nd minute, the score was within the five points scored by the Spanish international referee. A Real Sociedad player fights for the ball with a Levante soccer player, but the player collapses on the grass. Guillermo Cuadra Fernandes did not hesitate to point out the penalty spot just before the game.

This is a very complicated move, as perhaps this contact does not justify the ouster of Carlos Alvarez. But the moment that contact exists, it becomes completely up to you. Referee’s discretion.

Also, since it is the field referee who judges the strength of the touch or push, Prevented VAR intervention Within this CTA’s policy to limit performance from VOR rooms. Cuadra Fernandes interpreted the contact as a penalty and Carlos del Cerro did not intervene as it was not a clear and obvious mistake.

CTA explains:consider the act to be within the scope of interpretationbecause it depends on the evaluation of the strength of the contact. “VAR should not intervene as this is an interpretive assessment and not an obvious mistake and this is the most instructive part of this play.”
