“A tool that is too little useful: not even the fans understand it, the controversy has tripled.” On the eve of the Coppa Italia quarterfinal hosting Bologna, Gian Piero Gasperini returns to one of his favorite battles: “Var has worsened the game of soccer, so much so that those who have been in it for so many years do not recognize it. Some egregious cases he uncovers, but there are too many for which everything and the opposite of everything applies,” the Atalanta coach attacked to the microphones of Sport Mediaset.
Gasperini contro il Var: “Addetti ai lavori e tifosi non lo capiscono”
“Var has not enhanced the game of soccer, it has made it enormously worse. Personally, I am absolutely in trouble with Var, which has completely changed the game. There is a lot of confusion about contrasts and hand fouls,” the j’accuse of the Nerazzurri coach, who on Saturday had complained against Torino about the cancellation of the goal to Bellanova in the first half and the missed penalty on Coco’s touch on Djimsiti’s ball in the second.
“Uno strumento che triplica le polemiche e non è utile”
“There are too many instances that have made this game something different even in spirit, movements and development,” Gasperini closes. “It has created so much confusion even in the fans, because the controversies are now threefold. There is no certainty of regulation, it can be everything and the opposite of everything. As an instrument it has become too little useful.”
