Former referee Luca Marelli analyzed the episodes that characterized the match between Bologna and AC Milan. According to DAZN’s referee analyst, the first goal is regular, despite Fabbian’s wrist touch, while on the second goal there are doubts about the throw-in from which the goal originated.
FIRST GOL. “The goal came from a free kick, the ball popped up an area and there is the touch with the wrist and chest of Fabbian who then serves the assist to Castro. The key point is the concept of immediacy: it was Fabbian who served an assist with his right wrist, which is in a consonant position. Reason why at VAR they felt it was not punishable. If Castro had been the one who touched it with his hand, the goal would have been disallowed.”
SECOND GOL. “Before the ball was deflected out by Jimenez, the ball controlled by Cambiaghi maybe had gone out. There is no clear image, but the feeling is that it had gone out.”
