The Ball – Francisco J. Marquez attacks the Vizela Benfica referee and throws himself at Roger Schmidt (FC Porto)

FC Porto’s Director of Communications, Francisco J. Marquez, strongly criticized refereeing in Benfica’s 2-0 win over Vizela. He recalled how Benfica beat Vizela in the first round and showed Bah’s controversial move in Benfica’s area.

′′ Well, oddly enough, the VAR technology was the same. And it seems that it was himself, as a referee, who recently pointed out a beautiful dive in Chaves. Pure poetry,” he wrote of Bah and Ozmagic’s bidding in the red.

Benfica was happy. If today there was the same video assistant referee as the match in the first round, when he won the match with this penalty, then surely the foul in the area on Osmajic would have appeared correctly, ”he expressed the meeting in the first round in Luz, which the Eagles won 2-1 from Penalty kick in extra time.

Finally, the attack on Roger Schmidt: “What a problem. So isn’t it that Paula Poupon was always right and graduated in the most demanding good manners course provoking Vizela fans? That seems to be a catalyst for violence, but I guess I was just saying there were two kicks , but only one was registered.
