The president of Atalanta explodes: “It was shameful; there was submission from the referee”

Atalanta is not resigned and continues to cry out against the refereeing of the match against Real Madrid. Antonio Percassi, president of the Bergamo team, spoke at 'La Gazzetta dello Sport' showing his anger: “It was a shock, I had chills when I saw the referee take the red card. I thought he had made the wrong choice and I was sure that the VAR would have intervened. We were all puzzled, it was shameful: a very serious injustice.” The highest representative of the Dea has this explanation about what happened: “I had a very clear impression that has stayed with me: there was submission and the most important team was favored, on paper and at the level of history. Well, it wasn't an impression, this term could be used if there was only a dubious decision. There were so many that I had to write them down. “

And Percassi remembers them all: “There were fouls by Nacho and Modric on Maehle and Pessina, they had to be cautioned and nothing. A hand from Lucas Vázquez, the same. And Casemiro? The referee was going to caution him, it was agreed that he had already seen another yellow and he thought twice, saying I don't know what. One of ours would have gone out on the street, and it would have been fair. It is impossible to do it like that: everything against Atalanta, always. Either you are not suitable for a Champions League match or it is a matter of submission. “According to the Nerazzurri, there remains the regret of “not having seen another game”, since “eleven against eleven the level would have been different”. Of course, Percassi continues to believe in qualifying: “A game in Madrid is always difficult, but we are going to try to win. I thanked the boys, one by one. They were inconsolable.”
