The elbow to Savic broke two teeth: “What is the VAR for?”

Atletico ended again an annoying match for the use of the VAR. From the rojiblanco set they do not understand why video arbitration did not come to value Embarba's elbow to Savic in minute 37, action that Alberola Rojas grounded with a yellow card. The central Montenegrin rose from the ground bleeding and very upset with the action of the Espanyol player, who recriminated the blow.

After Savic himself confirmed that the elbow split two teeth. The defender was in charge of denouncing the discomfort of the rojiblanco team when certain actions are reviewed. “It's a red manual. The player jumps, does not look at the ball and elbows me in the mouth. I don't understand what the VAR is for if these plays are not reviewed, it is a red example “he declared at the end of the duel. A review room where he was Sánchez Martínez.

It is not the first time that Atlético feel mistreated by the work of video arbitration. In February, the rojiblanco team already experienced two situations where it claimed the appearance of the VAR. The first, in the derby against Real Madrid where he considered that Casemiro committed a penalty on Morata and neither the collegiate nor from the VAR room acted to signal it. In the next game Atlético won Granada 1-0, but no one was happy with the Soto Grado arbitration.

The play that irritated the rojblancos most came with a soldier elbow in the face of Correa in the area of ​​Granada. A play that would have been a penalty and the second yellow card for the striker of the Andalusian team. Medié Jiménez did not notify the Voto to Soto Grado for review.
