Great sigh of relief for Inter, but a terrible insult for Venezia, who had managed to equalize the draw at San Siro with Sverko’s goal in the 97th minute. But the referee Ferrieri Caputi canceled everything due to a foul
L’Inter wins with the final thrill. Inzaghi’s team, which defeated Venezia thanks to Lautaro’s goal, bringing them within -1 of leaders Napoli (the big match on Sunday), in the 97th minute were caught by a goal from Sverkowho in an aerial rebound had practically entered with the ball into the goal and beat it Sommer.
The entire visiting bench poured onto the pitch to celebrate the defender, but the joy did not last long: the referee Ferrieri Caputi, without even going to the monitor, endorsed by the VAR he decided to cancel everything due to a handball by Sverko himself in the aerial duel with Bisseck. The ball ends up on the back of the hand of the Venezia player, while the latter is in the process of rising with the opponent’s marker. A decision that will cause discussion, there will be no shortage of controversy.
Marelli on Dazn: «Clear hand touch, right to cancel»
«There would also have been a discussion about the jump Sverkobut there is the touch of the defender’s hand and this removes any kind of doubt about the regularity of the goal – the moviolista commented without hesitation on Dazn Luca Marelli — There was no monitor control because the episode was considered objective: the ball touches the hand, it’s obvious. You can actually see the hand moving upon contact with the ball, you can especially notice it in the replay from behind the goal.”
Di Francesco: «Unclear episode, but no controversy»
«Not one thing goes well – the words of the Venezia coach instead Eusebio Di Francesco to Dazn — In my opinion the touch of the hand is not evident, but if the regulations say this we must accept it. I don’t want to start a controversy, even if refereeing in general has always tended towards the other side. We would have deserved the equalizer, we never threw the ball away. We forced them to stay in their half of the pitch.”
