“I have always said it to everyone without problems and I repeat it: if someone doesn’t believe in our good faith, I’ll leave tomorrow morning”. As Gianluca RocchiCan designator, during Open Var, format of Dazn, Figc, Aia with the collaboration of the Lega Serie A comments on the letter of protests to the Lega di A from Lazio after the controversy over the equalizer by Udinese. “Our goal is to make as few mistakes as possible, then we make some, and if you were with me for a few weekends you would see how pissed I am”.
Rocchi on Davis’ goal: “He touches the ball in a totally accidental way, there is no immediacy but clarity must be made”
Therefore, for Rocchi, Davis’ equalizing goal in Udinese-Lazio is “a good network”. And he explained why: “I say this as a person who likes football. You can’t cancel goals like thatespecially when one touches the ball with a closed arm change in a totally fortuitous way like this one. Here as a referee I say that it is a rule that we definitely follow clarity must be made and I take responsibility for it, because then we have to give people answers that are as objective as possible. It’s clear that at this moment this adverb ‘immediately’ puts us in a bit of difficulty and today I can’t tell the kids that they made a mistake, because if I go and see theThere is no immediacy in this case. The player recovers the ball with a touch of the hand, yes, but does four dribbles in front of himtherefore if you ask me if there is immediacy, this can never be. At the same time I say, very sincerely, that if I have to understand from the outside, and I’m not a referee, what the correct decision is, I struggle.”.
