Gustavo Correia marked down in Famalicão v Benfica: serious errors | OneFootball

Gustavo Correia was once again at the center of controversy after the refereeing display he delivered in the 2-2 draw between Benfica and Famalicão. In the aftermath of the match, Jorge Faustino and Marco Ferreira assessed the referee’s performance and felt he did not do well, having been heavily aided by VAR to minimize the mistakes made.

"", said Jorge Faustino in statements to Record newspaper, giving Gustavo Correia a rating of 2 and considering that the official did not have the authority to handle a match of this level of demand.

"He made serious mistakes on the field that were only overturned by VAR’s excellent intervention. Technically, he was very interventionist while maintaining consistency. From a disciplinary standpoint, he controlled the game despite the errors. Well assisted", said Marco Ferreira in turn, giving the same assessment as his fellow analyst.

It is worth recalling that Pedro Henriques, in the analysis he wrote for the newspaper A Bola, said that Gustavo Correia delivered a very weak performance, making several mistakes throughout the match, ignoring clear penalties and infringements that could have put the physical integrity of certain players at risk.

Benfica shared a post in which it ‘awarded’ the MVP prize to Gustavo Correia and his refereeing team for their display in the match against Famalicão, where the Eagles dropped points due to a 2-2 draw.
