Many experts and supporters wondered if VAR had intervened during the Classic on Amine Harit's red. Téléfoot was able to attend the discussion between François Letexier and his video assistance during this controversial mistake.
This is an article that many Olympique de Marseille supporters were impatiently waiting to read. Téléfoot attended the meeting between OM and Paris Saint-Germain on Sunday October 27 from the VAR center.
One event obviously attracted everyone's attention. What happened during the expulsion of Amine Harit? The discussion was revealed and François Letexier received the approval of his assistants.
“I see crampons at chest level. Now we're checking. If I'm wrong, I'll reconsider my decision. I'm just waiting for the check to finish.”launched the whistle to Leonardo Balerdi, Marseille captain.
Cyril Gringore then confirms that his decision was the right one from his point of view. “Cyril for François. You definitely have an impact at the beginning on the chest”, he explained to her. Letexier then asks him if it is indeed a red, to which Gringore replies that it is.
After the meeting, Gringore justified his choice by saying that it did not represent a manifest error. “We must not re-arbitrate in his place. We let him arbitrate, make his decision. And we correct if there is an obvious error. There, that was not the case.” explained the video support manager to Téléfoot.
After this expulsion, PSG largely gained the upper hand over its Marseille rival. At this precise moment, Paris was already leading 1-0 following Joao Neves' opening score.
