And live! In the sense that she is not dead, but also in that of exultation. In conclusion, an explicit and manifest happiness for the victory of Lazio, thus able to keep the championship still open, is what emerges from the front pages of Sunday sports newspapers. The compliments to the boys of Inzaghi are wasted for the reversal of the match against Fiorentina, while they are rare (Calciomercato.com is one of these) those who stigmatize Fabbri’s refereeing and the way in which this turnaround was made possible by Lotito’s team. A title like “Lazio, not like this!“I did not find it, just as – beyond the legitimate outburst of Pradè – I have not heard negative comments, not to say scandalized, on institutional networks and holders of TV rights, as seen on Saturday night at the Olimpico. Silence in the stands, silence in several media. A favored treatment which, unfortunately, Juventus never enjoys, or Rubentus as on social media the name of the Juventus club is often deformed.
The key episode of the match, the one that made turn the race managed so far by the Viola team, was that of the strictness, but in addition there have been at least three other equally decisive and that have weighed little on the general economy of the game, branded addressed in one way. Can you say it? Can you write it? Or does it only happen with Rubentina Juve? The slow motion of several newspapers is also very good, starting with the mystery given to Bastos for the reckless entry slipped on Ghezzal the end of the first half and that would have forced Lazio to play the entire second half with one man less. A yellow much closer to an orange, someone writes, but I’m an elusive orange colored card does not exist: either it is yellow or it is red. And for Bastos who blows up Ghezzal he should have been red all his life, with no middle ground! Just as in Bologna he should have taken the direct red as well Danilo, instead of the double yellow. When a referee takes a corner, he must be told, always, not only if the offender is wearing the black and white shirt.
Red that Radu would have deserved too, in the 70th minute, when he hit Badelj with a hammer foot, but in that case too Fabbri opted – wrong (intentionally?) – for the yellow one. Yellow card that should have been pulled out during the second half I speak, when he detained a purple player for the shirt to escape the scoring. Even if it happened in the middle of the field and not near the area. Up to now, such a foul has always been punished with a warning. Till now…
And we come to the penalty, on the assignment of which I read comic comments: Dragowski naive, took a fatal risk, Caicedo very shrewd, he took a “trade” penalty. What job? Cunning, if anything, is an attitude. And what naivety would the Fiorentina goalkeeper have committed, merely accompanying Caicedo outwards without even touching him? If anything, it was Lazio who produced a blatant simulation. If Fabbri had deigned to go to the Var he would have seen her, just as we all saw her clearly and clearly on TV. Instead he decided not to go (deliberately?), Confident that Dragowski had brought down Ecuadorian. Fabbri al Var then went, in the final game, to check the elbow of Vlahovic settled to Patric and expel (rightly) the attacker purple. Why hasn’t he done it before, on such a decisive episode? We will never know, because the referees can distort an entire game but they are not allowed to explain the reasons for their sometimes absurd decisions.
Curiosity: where did Rocco Commisso and Joe Barone go? Why don’t they talk? Don’t they have anything to say? Don’t leave poor Pradè alone! Or they burst out only after a game with Juve? Both have already understood how it works in Italy and, in practice, adapt to a certain sports press, often triggered by professionals very prepared in this sense. Those, so to speak, who have been kicking her for 2 years with Pjanic its Rafinha and of the arbitral massacre on Saturday evening, maybe they will forget it on Monday. Lazio is alive, long live the championship reopened!
