The head of referees in Italy believes that Juventus were damaged against Sassuolo

Sassuolo's Domenico Berardi deserved to receive a red card in the last match against Juventus in Calciotto, according to the chairman of the Apennines Refereeing Commission Gianluca Rocchi. We are talking about the incident from the 58th minute, when the attacker roughed up Bremer from the "Bianconeri" team, but only received a yellow card. At that time, Juve were losing 1:2, and ended up going down 2:4.

Rocky gave this situation as an example of the use of VAR. The rule is that the referees from the room should call the head referee only if he made an obvious error with his initial decision. In this episode of the match, the VAR watched the situation with Berardi and Bremer and did not consider it necessary to ask the referee on the field, in this case Andrea Colombo, to review the controversial moment.

"I have no problem saying that although the VAR made the right decision, in my opinion it would be better to issue a red card here," Rocky said on DAZN. The head of referees also believes that if the main referees are constantly called to watch replays of a discussion situation, it would disrupt the rhythm of the match. On DAZN there is already a special show after each round of the Italian championship, in which recordings of the conversations between the referees of the VAR and those on the field are played.
