In the match Crotone - Cagliari, the referee canceled the net goal of the hosts, using the VAR system.

The match of the twenty-second round of the Italian championship between Crotone and Cagliari was full of drama and contradictions.

First, the referee Paolo Taliavento clearly sympathized with the hosts, appointing an ambiguous penalty at the gate of the guests, after which the score became 1-0, then, at the end of the first half, he removed the defender Cagliari Pisacani. However, later changed his sympathy, and when Croton scored a 1: 1 goal for the second time, the referee carefully studied the repetition of the moment, canceled the goal, having seen an offside that was not close.

"I can not explain the decision of the arbitrator," said Croton coach Walter Dzeng.

- Maybe the VAR monitor broke down, or the judge did not figure out which team is attacking, and which one is defending? You see clearly that in the "offside" there are football players in white form, namely they defended themselves in this episode! I do not understand how such a mistake can be made to a professional at such a high level? This is unthinkable! We again lose points at the last minute because of an inexplicable reason ".

In the event of a victory, Croton could have bypassed Cagliari in the standings and four points to break away from the relegation zone.
