The controversy of River’s victory against Banfield: why Chávez’s second goal should have been validated

0

Banfield had just discounted, put himself within range of River Plate with the 2-1 of andres chavez, when the mental impulse led him to 2-2. After a recovery in the opposite field, Cabrera cut back for Coronel, who masterfully assisted the aforementioned former Boca. the striker came face to face with Armani and, slapping, sent the ball into the net and jumped over the billboards to celebrate. However, he immediately heard the whistle of Facundo Tello annulling the action, at the request of his assistant Ezequiel Brailovsky. And the protests arose, waiting for the definition of the WAS.

Chávez bit his lips, the coach Javier Sanguinetti complained to Brailovsky, while Tello tried to calm the protagonists while waiting for the determination of human-technology. However, after several minutes of review by the team led by Silvio Trucco, the action ended up being annulled.

It was a mistake: the attacker was on the same line as the last defender, which is Enzo Díaz. It is the foot that enables it. Why do the arbitration body and the VAR fail? For three reasons: the camera to draw the line is not in line with the play, so it gives the oft-repeated “parallax error”. Then, the brake to draw the line seems to occur when the ball has already left Coronel’s feet. And even Brailovsky, at the moment of raising the flag, is past the exact place where Chávez began his career.

The duel at the Mario Alberto Kempes stadium ended with a 3-2 win for those led by Martín Demichelis, so the play in question ended up being key. There was also debate in Chávez’s discount, which was highly reviewed by the VAR. He was enabled.

Once again it became clear, after the experience in the World Cup and in some of the most important leagues in Europe, such as the Premier League, that the solution to these controversies is semi-automatic VAR, which requires a greater technological investment.
