Goalkeeper Juventus Gianluigi Buffon was unhappy with the video replay during the match.
Juventus in the second round of Serie A held a match against Genoa (4-2). In one of the episodes at the end of the first half, the referee appointed a penalty in the gates of the Genoese after watching the video replay.
"We were told that video replay would be used when taking a goal or scoring chances. But in fact they are used, even when someone stepped on their feet.
I believe that this is not football, but more like water polo. Video replay takes too much time.
When we were given a penalty in the gate to Genoa, I was not even happy, because it took six minutes (in fact, from the moment the ball hit the defender's hand and it was 2:30 minutes before the judge's final verdict).
Last season, we punched only three 11-meter. Now we can punch 50 penalties. I, as a football player of Juventus, are very happy with this development of events, but the spectacularity of matches will fall, "- quotes Buffon Football Italia.
