     REF WATCH Milan should have had a penalty before Paletta was sent off | Matchday 10 Edition

    REF WATCH Milan should have had a penalty before Paletta was sent off | Matchday 10 Edition

    This week’s refereeing column is a quiet one, certainly compared with the volume of blunders we had to deal with last week.
     

    Both Milanese sides have something to recriminate about, but expert Massimo Chiesa confirms that Inter could have been responsible for a foul in the penalty area… which wasn’t called.

     

    Genoa-Milan: Paletta’s sending off was the right decision, but Milan should have been given a penalty earlier on for a Miguel Veloso foul on Manuel Locatelli. Banti should have spotted the push.

     

    Inter-Torino: Massa made a few errors when it came to calling fouls. Miranda’s alleged foul on Maxi Lopez is a tough one: he has his arm around Maxi Lopez’s upper torso/ neck area, it was in the grey area.

     

    Even replays can’t clarify whether Emilian Moretti stopped a Candreva header with his arm, or with his shoulder. It looks more like the latter, but it’d be a penalty and sending off if it was his arm.

     

    THOSE RATINGS IN FULL

     

    Chievo Verona-Bologna: Pasqua 6 - He was right not to give Bologna a penalty, Massimo Gobbi got the ball in his contact with Simone Verdi.

    Fiorentina-Crotone: Gavillucci 5 - Not up to the task tonight. It wasn’t easy, and bad weather had an impact. Niko Kalinic’s clash with Claiton was a penalty, but the striker was offside. Gavillucci gave a foul to Claiton, which wasn’t there.

    Inter-Torino: Massa 5,5.

    Juventus-Sampdoria: Russo 6.

    Lazio-Cagliari: Celi 6-  He’s in better physical shape.

    Napoli-Empoli: Mariani 6.

    Pescara-Atalanta: Guida 6 - Mattia Caldara had his hand exposed on Alberto Aquilani’s shot, but the two were very close, so he was right not to give the penalty.

    Sassuolo-Roma: Damato 6,5.

    Genoa-Milan: Banti 5.

     

    TRENDING UP: Damato, Pasqua, Mariani.

    BACK TO THE DRAWING BOARD: Banti, Gavillucci, Massa.
