Sunday evening, the closing match of Ligue 1 day was too often marked by a controversy in arbitration. At the origin of it, a gross error of François Letexier during the meeting between ASSE and Olympique Lyonnais (2-1).
The latter should never have canceled the red card he had given to Lucas Stassin, author of a dreadful sole on Corentin Tolisso. The intervention of the VAR (video assistance at the arbitration) after the 23rd minute of this derby and the remarks made inside the truck are also completely lunar.
Jérôme Rothen cannot be returned. “Again, it is improbable what happened. What is sorry is that we are at an end of the season and that we do not use mistakes. On this year, you have to explain to me why Mr. Letexier is completely credible to arbitrate the flagship matches of the days. There were three flagship matches from him and three scandals: OM-PSG, Monaco-Psg and now Saint-Etienne-Lyon. Well, that's enough! Red for Harit, Donnarumma who will have a balaf for life, and what happened during the derby ”, deplored the sports consultant on RMC.
Latexier guilty plead
And the old left midfielder to continue: “The Var is there to catch up with the referee's mistakes when he is wrong. But for once, he makes the right hot decision. How do we explain that the Var puts a lot of questions in the head? Mr. Letexier, he has been so in the fog for quite a month, he agreed to Willy Delajod, who is far from being the best referee in Ligue 1, even less in the Var. It's time to put a big broom to start again on a good basis. ”
After the meeting, François Letexier admitted to the Lyon midfielder that he had made a mistake. “” The apologies of Mr. LETEXIER will lead neither pain nor misunderstanding “Said Tolisso on his Instagram account.
