THE Celta drew 1-1 with Sevilla, but… it’s up for a stoppage time decision. Hernandez Hernandez initially awarded a penalty for a tackle on Jesus Navas on Tasos Douvikas, but was then called by VAR and after doing an on field review overturned his original decision.
This angered everyone in Vigo, with Iago Aspas, who had been substituted a little earlier, to tear the VAR monitor from his nerves. “It’s like they want to drown us. With so many penalties owed to us, we could be close to the places for the Champions League and we are 18th. It is not the first time it has happened, we have played 12 matches and all decisions are against us. If we want to become the best league in the world again, we can’t go on like this“, emphasized the veteran striker.
“We could have had 8-10 points more if it wasn’t for those decisions against us. This time we were denied a penalty because a guy in an office thinks he can judge the strength of a tackle on the pitch. Bring us a physicist to explain it to us then“, the normally meek man said, clearly annoyed Rafa Benitez.
