Pro ShotsThe conscious penalty moment: Noa Lang flies through the air after the duel with Mats Wieffer
NOS Voetbal•vandaag, 13:48
The referee affairs department of the KNVB does not (yet) discuss the possible penalty moment in the Feyenoord-PSV cup match. The moment when PSV player Noa Lang fell in the penalty area after a tackle by Mats Wieffer will be included in the upcoming evaluation.
“Just like in other cases in competitions where there is something to do,” a KNVB spokesperson explains. The situation will probably also be discussed in the group with all referees, who meet regularly.
Feyenoord won the match in the eighth finals of the KNVB Cup 1-0 against PSV. There was great dissatisfaction among the people of Eindhoven in the second half because of Wieffer’s possible foul on Lang. Referee Dennis Higler did not give a penalty and video referee Clay Ruperti did not intervene either.
Anger at PSV
After the match, PSV coach Peter Bosz was still furious. “If you have seen the images, there is no discussion possible?! Come on,” said Bosz. “This was a penalty and a yellow card. I can imagine that the match will look different. So it was a crucial moment.”
Fellow trainer Arne Slot understood Bosz’s anger.
