Manolo Gaspar, Málaga sports director, posted on his Twitter account the famous play of the goal annulled to Genaro in Huesca with the following comment: “No one understands this”. This comment found the almost unanimous understanding of all the people who entered to comment. And, the day after, the sensation in Malaga is one of indignation and disbelief over an action that has deprived the team of taking three points from Alcoraz. And the comparison with the recent Spain-France is inevitable: “Why Mbappé yes and Genaro no?”.
Who else who least is quite misplaced with the arbitration criteria and decisions via VAR. In the final of the Nations League, Theo Hernández’s center is deflected by Eric García in his attempt to clear. The ball reaches Mbappé, which is offside and marks. His goal is conceded because the referee understands that the action of the Spanish defender is a new play. After the rigorous debates between the gurus of both sides, the conclusion is that the rule is wrong but the goal is legal-
Well. We arrived in this Huesca-Malaga. The ball from Paulino goes to Peybernes, who makes a move to go after him. But Cristian Salvador anticipates who tries to control with his chest. What comes out is an involuntary assist to Genaro, who is not off-side and heads to the net. AND to the amazement of almost everyone, the goal is annulled. What has been the criterion? Incomprehensible and cumbersome
It is not surprising that social networks are fuming and that many Malaguista fans have asked the club to vigorously protest what they consider to be “bad treatment”. Jose Alberto Lopez he was very moderate in his appearance before the media and bit his tongue. It is already known that at the minimum, sanction to the song. The coach commented that he asked the referees for explanations and that somehow he left with the conclusion that they had not seen him. “It is a wrong decision that comes from Madrid and we are left without two points. It is the same play of the Spain-France. It is what it is”.
As a positive aspect within the circumstances, it should be noted that the team played a great second half and accumulated four games without losing, although three consecutive draws.
