Gianpaolo Calvarese, ex referee, has analyzed the refereeing of Cagliari-Juve and has commented on it. His comment:
ANALYSIS – «Ready, set, go, and after a few minutes Yerry Mina hits Carlos Alcaraz with an elbow to the face. A penalty is missing for Juventus, because the Colombian defender hits the opponent (who will indeed lose blood and need medical attention for the rest of the match) before intercepting the ball with his head. To be interpreted is the penalty awarded to Cagliari for a handball by Gleison Bremer. On Alberto Dossena’s header, the Brazilian, who is not looking for the ball and is not pushed by the opponent, is completely turned back and does not see the ball coming. However, despite this, the arm is in an unnatural and very high position, therefore with a geometry that seems punishable. Very clear the second penalty for the red and blues, for an intervention by Wojcech Szczesny on Zito Luvumbo. The yellow card for the Polish goalkeeper is also correct. In the final minutes, Federico Chiesa protests for a alleged handball by Dossena, who has both arms attached to the body: it is right to let play continue, also confirmed by VAR».
