The arbitrator designator Nicola Rizzoli speaks to the microphones of Radio Anch’io Sport its Radio 1: “Var on call? It can be a consideration. It is a choice made by the body that manages rules and protocol. The problem is felt more in Italy than in other countries. I would have nothing to stand in the way, however, we must bear in mind that we are within European and world competition and the rules must be the same but at the moment it is not a topic under discussion. It should be tried, but it may not take away the controversy“.
Rizzoli then intervened on one of the most controversial episodes of the last day of the championship, the penalty kick awarded to Lazio against Fiorentina: “If we look at the dynamics of the action it was very difficult from the field to see something different in the dynamics of the action with the contact between Caicedo and Dragowski. There was the attacker’s malice, 99% of the referees would have given the penalty. Why don’t you go and watch the dubious episode? Football is not a science, because it has dynamics and qualities that make this sport beautiful and there can be many doubts. If we were to use technology to redeem doubts, it would have a big impact, for this we will only correct clear and obvious errors. The Var is not used to redeem doubts, it would ruin spectacularity “.
