There had been Bruno Genesio's rant after Lens-Lille. In the wake of Lille-Ol, it was President Olivier Létang who was mounted in the niche to shoot red balls on the arbitration in Ligue 1.
“We have a real substantive problem with arbitration in France. You can't have evenings like this. It is not possible. I don't want to just talk about us. Every weekend, on almost all matches, there are problems ”railed the Lille leader at the microphone of BeIN Sports.
“There are a ton of decisions that are not the right ones on both sides. How do we get out so that all weekends we no longer have a bunch of controversy and decisions that are more than litigious? »»added Olivier Létang, who does not want to complain only of errors against his club.
Lille-Ol, validated decisions
The former president of Stade Rennais pinned Mickaël Landreau, sports advisor for referees within the FFF. The Federation responded indirectly in its traditional debrief from the arbitration department, published after each day in Ligue 1.
Several situations are studied, such as the hand of Clinton Mata in the surface (43rd), the defender's tackle in stride on Ayyoub Bouaddi, or the rough intervention of Malick Fofana on Matias Fernandez-Pardo (72nd). Each time, the arbitration management considers that the Var had not intervened, because there was no manifest error. The penalty for Lille was not essential, and the sanctions pronounced against Mata and Fofana, namely a yellow card, were justified. The red card was not appropriate on these situations.
