Sporting demands that the audio of the video assistant referee be revealed: “Portugal missed an opportunity to be a leader.” – Sporting

Sporting defeated Vizela last Friday as a result of the intervention of the video assistant referee, who warned Rui Costa of a penalty kick committed on Paulinho, a decision that was verified by the referee after referring to the pictures. Despite this decision, the Lions did not like the work of the refereeing team because it validated Vizela’s goal after an involuntary intervention by the Porto field judge, a move that, in the view of Leonín’s Director of Communications, Miguel Braga, should have been nullified. . However, the leader’s main message was a challenge to the Portuguese Football Federation (FPF) and more specifically to the Arbitration Board (CA), requesting that the VAR vote be disclosed. “Sporting, in their last two matches, have drawn one and won another due to the intervention of the VAR. In these cases there would be less doubt if we had heard the voice of VAR. In August, the head of the CA FPF, José Fontelas, said CA would follow UEFA guidelines and FIFA that you don’t disclose either. Five months later, the International Board announced that decisions will be transferred even on the field… Portugal missed an opportunity to be a pioneer. In this game with Vizela, we can have opportunities to see decisions explained in a rational way. I think it’s an existing procedure To stay,” he said on the “Raio-X” show, which is broadcast on Sporting TV.
