Particular episode in the refereeing immediately at the start of the Conference League match between Fiorentina and LASK Linz. After just 94 seconds of play, in fact, the Viola had found the way to the net with Moise Kean good and lucky to take advantage of a rebound in the penalty area, after a missed aerial intervention by Kouame which had sent the visiting goalkeeper out of time.
A network spoiled by a suspicious touch, in fact. But what was not convincing was the procedure followed: the field referee, the Hungarian Berke, had not in fact detected any irregularities. The voice of VAR then came to his aid, his compatriot Vad, who noticed a touch with his arm in the rather frantic situation.
Since it is not an objective situation, such as the drawing of an offside line, the match director on the pitch should have had the final saywho instead took the report at face value, trusting and canceling the goal of the potential flash advantage for the Tuscans. However, it arrived shortly thereafter.
