FC Porto’s Francisco J. Marques Slams Refereeing Error and VAR Controversy

Francisco J. Marques continued Luís Gonçalves’ criticism regarding FC Porto’s game with Rio Ave, where the Dragons complained about a poorly reversed penalty by referee António Nobre and VAR Fábio Melo. “This time, more than being faced with an error in the evaluation of the refereeing team, we are facing a different degree of adulteration of the sporting truth. The behavior of referee Fábio Melo, of only showing one type of image to the referee, purposely induced the referee to mistake. What he did was helpless. He doesn’t show him the images that show that there is a touch. Forcing, leading referee António Nobre to error. It is extremely serious, it is an error that cannot be accepted”, said the director FC Porto’s communications team, speaking to Porto Canal, adding that they are waiting for an explanation from the Arbitration Council. “It’s good that João Ferreira shows this audio well and that the Arbitration Council makes a clarification about this move. These things only happen in FC Porto games. Then there is another singularity in FC Porto games: the permanent and constant intervention of VAR to take away penalties against FC Porto. Even via cell phone, they have already taken a penalty against FC Porto this season. FC Porto holds the world record for penalties taken away by VAR. At Bessa there was a very clear penalty and then VAR remained silent. This is joking with the Portuguese championship. It would be good if there was courage to explain this publicly, they are making the Portuguese championship a third world championship. And they punish anyone who has the audacity to say that the king goes naked, but the king really goes naked”, he added Francisco J. Marques. By Record
