Marelli: “Luvumbo's position had an impact on Maignan during Cagliari's 1-0”

Cagliari's goal conceded by Milan in the second minute of the game with a great volley from Zortea is already causing discussion. VAR did not intervene, but at the time of the Cagliari player's shot his teammate Luvumbo was in an offside position, apparently impacting Maignan according to the referee commentator DAZN Luca Marelli. These are his statements on the matter: “There was a need for further investigation into the goal scored by Zortea for Luvumbo's position. Maignan had to lean out to see Zortea's shot due to the position of Luvumbo, who was in an offside position. In my opinion, that of the Cagliari player was an impactful position.”

The story of the provisional 1-0
Cagliari already ahead against Milan. Mister Nicola's team immediately unlocks it with Lucky Nadirgood at picking up a loose ball after a Viola corner to coordinate in the penalty area and beat Maignan with a perfect right-footed shot into the corner. Diavolo too passive in the defensive phase, Sardinia ahead after just two minutes of play.
