Arauho gives some! VAR dialogue record: Araujo did not touch the ball and tripped the opponent

Barcelona defeated Sevilla 1-4, and Araujo was awarded a penalty in a defense just 13 minutes into the game. World Sports reported that the broadcaster released a recording of the dialogue between the referee Munis Ruiz and VAR referee Del Cerro Grande.

VAR referee Grande: "In our opinion, the defensive player caused the opponent to stumble. He put his legs between the legs of the offensive player, forming a trip."

referee Munis Ruiz responded: "Play me a longer clip, I want to see Araujo's moves."

"There is no possibility of destroying the obvious offensive opportunity (SPA), nor is there a chance of destroying the obvious scoring (D OGSO) possibility. There was a contact below. "

Finally he concluded: "We awarded a penalty, okay? Penalty, no cards. He didn't touch the ball. Let me see that he did not touch it, and did not poke the ball with his toes..."

At the same time, the VAR referee room made it clear to him: "He definitely didn't touch the ball, and he didn't kick the ball at all.

Munis Ruiz finally confirmed: "The leg is in front, it's good. We awarded a penalty. ”
