Inter Milan 1-1 Atalanta – Media Claim ‘Clear Penalty Not Awarded To Inter’ After Drama In San Siro Showdown | OneFootball

Corriere dello Sport have added their voice to the growing chorus of criticism directed at the officiating in Inter Milan’s 1-1 draw with Atalanta, declaring without ambiguity that the Nerazzurri were denied a clear penalty for a foul on Frattesi and that VAR should have intervened to correct the mistake.

The outlet’s verdict on the Frattesi-Scalvini incident is unsparing, via FCInterNews.

“If Manganiello from his position on the pitch may not have correctly seen the contact in the penalty area. VAR Gariglio, who also had the experienced Chiffi alongside him, should have called him to the On Field Review.”

The dynamic of the incident is described as “clear.”

Inter’s player gets to the ball first and is kicked on the right foot by the Atalanta defender.

“It would have been correct to award the penalty in favour of the home side.”

Corriere also revisit the Atalanta equaliser.

Indeed, noting that Sulemana’s push on Dumfries “appears to be a foul.”

And, furthermore, flagging an additional foot-to-foot contact between the two players.

One that they believe also warranted further examination by the officials.

The protests from the Inter bench proved costly.
