Lyon’s Jean-Michel Aulas laments refereeing decision in Lille game | OneFootball

Lyon president Jean-Michel Aulas has reacted on Twitter following the refereeing decision to rule out Lucas Paquetá’s late equaliser against Lille last night.

Responding to a tweet with an image appearing to show Lille goalkeeper Leo Jardim as the one to kick the attacking midfielder, Aulas has requested an explanation from Pascal Garibian, French refereeing’s national director.

VAR had ruled out the goal after Jardim’s mistake saw Paquetá score into an open goal, for a supposed foul by the latter in the process.

Alongside the image is another one of Malo Gusto’s tussle with Neymar during their match with Paris Saint-Germain, which saw a penalty awarded to Lyon without VAR being called on to reverse the decision.

Les Gones fell to defeat at home tonight as Lille leapfrogged them into 8th with a first-half goal from Gabriel Gudmundsson enough for the three points.
