Former referee: Pedro s goal was not offside, Bissek s arm was opened when defending & the penalty was correct

reported on May 19 that in the 37th round of Serie A, Inter Milan drew 2-2 with Lazio at home. Former Serie A referee Marelli talked about some of the focus of the game.

In the 72nd minute, Besino made a back pass and Pedro scored a goal. The linebacker first raised the flag to indicate offside, but then VAR's penalty was valid. Marelli, who was a commentator at DAZN, said: "When Pedro's first goal, Bastoni dragged in the end, which left Lazio players not offside. The only possible offside was Dia, but he did not participate in this attack. Besino did not offside, and the same was true for Hisai." In the 79th minute, Dumfries headed the ball. Marelli continued: "Lazio protested some of this goal, but the players on both sides were relatively restrained. Under the circumstances at that time, VAR would not intervene because this was the judgment made by the referee on the court." In the 86th minute, Bissek handballed in the penalty area. After VAR intervened, the referee awarded a penalty kick. Marelli believes that the penalty is correct. "Bissek's arm wasn't snug, but was slightly open, and there was a move towards the football, which might be due to an instinctive reaction, but it increased his defense area anyway."
