Erick Lonis, leader of the Saprissa technical commission, got tired and, on the first day, went out to speak against VAR and the decisions that are being made.
This, since it considers that the purple ones are measured differently than the rest and are not willing to continue putting up with it.
“I have been captain of this team and you get frustrated when you see certain situations. I feel that the VAR and The referees have been conditioning us from the beginning of the parties, and it is not from now.
We have been analyzing that, due to simple faults, they examine us rigorously and even with a microscope; It’s not like that for other teams…”
However, with this he did not want to justify the suffered 2-2 draw against Puntarenas, in La Cueva, which earned them all kinds of criticism and questions.
Lonis took a step forward and assured that they are going to take action on the matter, since they are not stupid.
“We are not stupid nor are we going to allow the VAR to continue being applied to us in one way and to others in another.
We have to take measures from an institutional point of view and it is not now. “Either we get serious about the VAR issue or we are going to have to start taking measures that we have never taken before.”
In the purple rows they question that they were not reviewed two alleged penalty plays that could very well have changed the history of the match against Puntarenas.
“The VAR must be transparent and equitable, and we are not going to continue putting up with this situation that It has been happening to us for a while, and not because I say so.but because the numbers say so.
