Napoli sporting director Giovanni Manna criticized the work of the referees in the match against Atalanti (1:2). Quote from an Italian DAZN official.

“It’s impossible to explain. Penalties were missed, but at the beginning of the second half the referee blew the whistle - there was no foul, no VAR override, and the goal was not insured. There's a foul here? VAR called the referee to the monitor in the penalty episode, otherwise I don’t call again? Tse ganba!

We are urged to be respectful, we are not afraid, because incidents can balance one another. We had problems in Turin and Verona, and they didn’t say anything to us, but it’s a mess. We are fighting for Liza's place as champions, and we are waiting for what is to come.

It is necessary to be careful, because the clubs of pride will spoil the praise of the decision arbiters. All we want is justice, what is due to us, but not wrong, and not football.. Tseganba, I don’t say anything else.

Before the penalty, then the referee recognized the penalty, and then they called him and said that the contact was insufficient - why didn’t VAR call him in another episode It is clear that, having added to Kiffey, there was no re-verification of VAR. This is absurd. Neumovirno.

This season is so difficult, we arrive to Bergamo in such a state and how we can’t secure a clean goal. This is paradoxical. Astonished in the stands, I let go that the ball was not in the game, because there was nothing else there. Accepted Gin hung on Goilunna.

Since there was nothing there, then on the right it is neither subjectivity nor objectivity. It is not right for us to be portrayed as idiots. We work hard, we struggle, and yet it’s unpleasant,” said Manna.

At the 42nd match of the 26th round of Serie A Atalanta - Napoli, the visiting forward Rasmus Goilunn fell into the square in the field after contact with the defender Isak Gin. The referee of the match, Daniele Ciffey, immediately awarded the penalty, and after reviewing the VAR, announced his decision. At the start of the second half, Napoli goalkeeper Miguel Gutierrez's goal was deducted through a foul by the same Goilunn.
