Francisco J. Marquez returns to the classics and targets Louis Godinho: “Great mistakes against FC Porto” – FC Porto

The Director of Communications at Porto believes that the video assistant referee technology for the game with Benfica did not defend the sporting truth

For Francisco J. Marquez, Benfica Porto was marked with refereeing errors. Porto’s communications director considers that a penalty has not yet been scored against Taremi, in a try against Flachodemus, and another against Zido, in a duel with Otamendi. And they shot VAR Luís Godinho.

“In Taremi’s attempt, I understand that the referee did not notice the knee that Flachodemus gave him. But whoever is in charge of the VAR has an obligation to help the referee. And the VAR was obliged to point out this penalty. In Zaido’s attempt, the most scandalous thing is that the technique Video assistant referee Luis Godinho did not help the referee, and this season we are witnessing a decline in the video assistant referee technology, and the video assistant referee technology came to help the referee judge better, and this season, there were serious mistakes in Benfica matches, and then there are referees who seem to suffer from Bad luck, like Luis Godinho. Whether it’s the VAR or the referee, he made a final decision against FC Porto,” Francisco J. Marquez accused, this Tuesday, on Canal Porto.

And he continued, “If mistakes are distributed once on one side and once on the other… There is no memory, there are several cases of serious mistakes by referee Luis Godinho against FC Porto. And again, in this derby,” he said. methodically. He did not step in to help the arbitration, the game and the sporting truth as was his duty. The case of Zidu’s move is truly unforgivable. It is very visible. I can not understand. Also in Tarimi’s move, he had an obligation to point.”

Francisco J. Marquez then focused on Benfica and added, “Since the start of the tournament, Benfica appears to have benefited from an exception system on the part of the VAR, which does not refer to penalties against Benfica. Two. In Benfica-Bacchus a penalty that would have made the score was not awarded. 3-3 And then there was Andre Andre’s famous shot [V. Guimarães], penalty kick is very clear. In the match with Vizela, there is also a penalty kick that could have given an equalizer, more recently there was another penalty kick in the match with Rio Ave and now these two are in the match with FC Porto.

The Porto manager also recalls that if Porto had converted one of the penalties he believed was left to score in the derby into a goal, Sergio Conceicao’s side would have had the “head-to-head advantage” with the Reds.

And he asked himself: “What’s going on? What condition is there? These referees must be punished properly so that it doesn’t happen again. We had a whole round to take advantage of a penalty. The most obvious case was against Casa Pia. Next, in the match with Gil Vicente VAR Thiago Martins intervened and Hassan scored a penalty against FC Porto, but then there was a step on Taremi that was no longer indicated and a handball was not indicated either.The role of VAR is conditional on the marking of capital bids in favor of FC Porto and capital bids against Benfica This means that there are seven points of distance between the two teams. Respected referees. I hope that an exception will be made for the performance in the remaining trips.”
