Jorge Faustino and Marco Ferreira analyzed the refereeing of Anzhony Rodrigues in the Sporting - Estrela da Amadora match (4-0), from the 12th round of Liga Portugal Betclic. The experts confirm that a penalty was missed for the lions due to a foul on Luis Suárez in the tricolors' area.
"He decided well overall, both technically and disciplinarily, in a game that was not complicated to manage. Serious error - uncalled penalty - without impact on the outcome of the winner", stated Jorge Faustino, to the newspaper Record, giving a score of three to the referee from the Madeira Football Association.
"When Luis Suárez was about to shoot the ball, Otávio placed his foot in front of him, preventing the shot and also charged him with intensity in the hip area. Penalty not called", he justified. Meanwhile, Marco Ferreira gave a negative score (two) to the referee of the match, in Alvalade.
"Broad technical criteria harmed the technical and disciplinary level. He controlled the game disciplinarily, committing some errors and breaking the criteria. Poorly assisted. Incident in the Estrela area with Otávio ignoring the ball and moving towards Luis Suárez, preventing him from playing the ball. The defender charges and hits the forward's foot. Penalty not called without the proper intervention of the VAR".
