Victor Lessa stated that, in a meeting last Wednesday, the CBF acknowledged what he considered biased refereeing and serious errors by Rafael Klein and VAR Daniel Nobre Bins. According to the journalist, the refereeing committee assessed that Pulgar should have been expelled for rough and violent play, and that Alex Sandro committed a penalty on Savarino, although it considered the VAR's decision to respect the on-field call in that incident to be correct. The committee, Lessa added, understood that there was no penalty by Leo Ortiz on Castillo. Lessa said that Fluminense demanded punishment for the referee, but that the CBF had already assigned him for the weekend, as it schedules appointments more than one round in advance. He questioned whether Klein could still be punished afterward. He also stated that he agreed the VAR should not intervene in interpretative plays when the referee had a clear view, but criticized the lack of criteria, saying that those responsible decided when to intervene. In Lessa's opinion, there was a clear foul by Leo Ortiz on Castillo, at least for dangerous play, and the incident should have been called as a foul even outside the area. #CBF #Arbitragem #Futebol (translated)
