Ball - The Eagles' plea: "It's time to make the audio between the VAR and the referee public" (Benfica)

In the daily edition of the newsletter Benfica news, He aimed the Eagles again in the match referee with Gil Vicente. Criticizing some of Artur Soares Dias’ decisions, the red flag left the call for dialogue between the VAR and the referee to be public.

“Artur Soares Dias had another unhappy night in the Benfica referee. This time, he thought he saw a foul that wasn’t there to disallow a goal against Benfica, giving the scoreboard an advantage in the seventh minute. This time, it didn’t seem to him that there was already a penalty on Otamendi, in the 43rd minute. We could talk about a tie here before the break. The VAR’s silence is strange, affected again in Luz by the lethargy we’ve seen in other matches. Yes, it is recognized that there may be a communication failure or even a specific explanation that is important to disclose. That’s why it’s time to make the audio between the VAR and the referee public so we can all understand what really happened. Nobody wants the fans to get the idea, wrong, of course, that referee Artur Soares Dias and VAR Hugo Miguel came to Luz with the goal of preventing Benfica from winning.
