“After the break things are happening with the VAR that did not happen before”

Gaizka Garitano, Athletic coach, has always been favorable to the use of VAR in football. However, seeing what is happening in recent games, for example with the clear penalty of Munir to Iñigo Martínez, the rojiblanco coach considers that some modification must be made in its operation.

Garitano He believes that a touch-up needs to be done on the VAR. “Yes, perhaps yes seeing the last weeks. I don't know how or what, but you should give this help tool a go and that brings good things to football. But we all agree that something must change, “he says.

Derio's stressed that “we have all noticed that after the break the criteria and the things that are happening were not happening before. Yes there is a difference. It is the feeling that we all have, that in the last weeks after the coronavirus, the tendency is very different to beep things. We cannot worry … It is difficult to arbitrate and make decisions, we cannot intervene there. The only thing we can do is worry more about the aspect of the game, about ourselves, about preparing well. If you play a good game, you will be less exposed to the decisions that can be made ”.

“There is a lot of beeping going on from above. And in plays like the penalty the other day, it's not very clear. “

Also, Garitano He puts on the table that “at the beginning, I think they told us that they were not going to enter to assess the gray plays, that is how they defined them. And we are seeing that much is being valued and whistle from above. And in other very obvious plays like the penalty the other day, very clear that everyone saw is not called. it is a bit of a criterion of one thing or another, it is not what was not said at the beginning how it is working. But we can't give it much thought, I don't like to talk about it, it seems that you make excuses. We have to worry more than ours, it is something in which we cannot do anything, in ours yes ”.
