the penalty on Tonali and the doubts about the opponents’ goal

The performance of referee de Burgos in the Nations League match analyzed by X-ray, the Spanish whistle warned only one player: decisive Var

International since 2018 Ricardo de Burgos, Rosetti’s choice for Israel-Italy, was born in Bilbao in March 1986 and does not have a great deal of experience in high-level matches. During his career he directed once Milan and once Lazio but how did the Spanish whistle fare last night?

De Burgos’ history with Israel and Italy

No precedent with the Azzurri while there was a crossroads with Israel (Israel won on the occasion)

The referee only cautioned one player

Assisted by assistants De Francisco and Moreno with fourth official Pablo González Fuertes, from Cerro Grande to Var and Vega all’AVarthe referee only warned one player, the Italian Cambiaso. Corners: 11-2 for Italy. Recovery time: 1′; 2′.

Italy-Israel, slow motion cases

These are the main dubious episodes. In the 39th minute a loose ball in the area after a Cambiaso cross rejected by the Israeli defense, Peretz comes into contact with Tonali and the referee points to the spot after the VAR signal, Retegui appears from 11 meters and scores. In the 65th minute on the goal scored directly from the flag by Abu Fani, Vicario was perhaps disturbed by an opponent on the occasion. There is a VAR check but the referee validates the goal. After just 2 minutes of added time, Italy-Israel ends 4-1.
