VAR disallowed a correctly scored goal in the game between Polya Jassa and Sepsi

In the 81st minute of the match between Poly Iassi and Sepsi, Gabriel Debeluch managed to send the ball into the goal after a cross.

After VAR analysis, the goal was disallowed for offside, although the video showed that the lines went through one of the Moldovan defenders.

A day after the game, the chairman of the Central Refereeing Commission issued a statement admitting the error and saying that the referees in the VAR booth were not allowed to delegate.

“After the end of the match between Polytechnic of Iasi and Sepsi, the last match of the 7th stage of the Super League, which took place on Thursday, October 19, CCA immediately received all the information and received images from the VAR camera.

Given that the attacking player clearly intends to play the ball and is challenging an opponent for possession of the ball, and based on the information provided by the VAR, the match referee called to the monitor to check the player’s intention to play the ball, correctly interpreted the phase.

But a further review of the procedure after the end of the game revealed that the attacking player was on the edge of the game, with a distance of 10 centimeters from the penultimate defender.

We apologize for the error by VAR and VAR in determining the defender closest to the goal line. Both game officials were replaced from future delegations.

The referee cannot be blamed because it was confirmed from the VAR room that the defender in front of whom the offside was drawn was closest to the goal line. This was found to be incorrect after a review by the CCA” – announced Kyros Vassarasreports FRF.
