Four days after Nice's heavy 4-1 defeat on the pitch at Groupama Stadium against OL, Nice's anger has not weakened over Bastien Dechepy's refereeing. The publication of the soundtrack of the exchange between the main referee and the VAR control did not calm the spirits on the Côte d'Azur because the VAR had indicated a foul by Duje Caleta Car on Evann Guessand, who should have give a penalty for Nice, but Mr. Decheppy stuck to his decision on the pitch. The Aiglons coach did not fail to express his incomprehension today. “We even had the VAR exchanges. It's almost even more worrying, I don't know if I can say that, because it's lunar. We were playing in Lyon, but we were on the Moon there.”
Double standards according to Haise
Satisfied that the refereeing error was recognized by the Refereeing Department, the former RC Lens coach nevertheless believes that there is a double standard between the decisions taken for OL and those against OGC Nice. “They did not address the other errors. I just know that, for example, Lacazette's foul on Yaël Nandjou they just checked for offside. Well…On the other hand, for Pablo Rosario, they didn't just check for offside. That’s a lot of questions for me.” After another strong outing, Franck Haise will have the opportunity to speak before the arbitration committee tomorrow despite the fact that this passage will not take away the three points and fifth place for OL.
