A bet that ended badly, that went up in smoke in the final minutes of Juventus-Salernothose marked by the objective of milik and the call of var which induces the referee Marcenaro not to validate the goal of the possible victory (3-2) for offside Bonucci, leads to a lawsuit. A lawyer (Fabio Garzi) has decided to sue Lega Serie A in court for the marking achieved at 97° and not awarded due to a sensational vacuum of technological means.
In the control room, the most important image for the evaluation of the episode was missing, the one related to the position of the patient. Candreva who – more isolated in the part of the field near the corner flag – kept the Juventus defender in the game.
If there were such a picture, maybe today Juve would have 2 more points in the standings and Cuadrado and Allegri would not have been expelled (later disqualified) by the vehement protests. Because of that 3-2 that disappeared in the air, the Peruvian lawyer lost a victory of more than 3,600 euros and has now decided to seek compensation through a petition in Perugia. He believes that there is a clear and indissoluble causal link between sporting and pecuniary loss and that he has enough material to prove it.
The audience (warns The messenger) was scheduled for the next December 7th, to deal with the matter will be the Christian Christian Justice of the Peace with Lega Serie A, who must form a civil party in the court’s diatribe.
The Umbrian lawyer, assisted by his colleague Andrea Colavita, justified the complaint by referring to an error “guilty and decisive” who would have acquired a “unfair damage consisting in the loss of the possibility of obtaining substantial economic gain”. He calls his act a “question of principle” because – he explains – this time something much more serious happened than the simple error of a referee, namely the use of technology “totally wrong”.
Attention in the dossier is focused on the mistake made by the Var team that did not take into account the position of the Salernitana player, Candreva, nor did the necessary checks in relation to an offside case resulting from a corner. That is why he claims that there is no doubt about the mistake made to “negligence and inexperience of the user staff (referee and TV technician, ed.), as well as any technical and organizational deficiencies for which the person who organized the event, in this case the Serie A League, must legally respond”.
In recent days, a betting agency (888 Sport) has decided to refund all those who bet on Juve’s victory over Salernitana and re-credited the amount paid. Umbrian lawyer decided to go further, will he be able to win? He is convinced of this.
