Florian Sotoca summed up this feeling this Friday at a press conference. “It is very good news for us to recover Adrien Thomasson. A good thing that the LFP and the referee met to cancel this card.believes the attacker of the Blood and Gold, who however has not forgotten that this incident probably distorted the course of this meeting lost by the Artesians.
“After, we take this red, it was 2-2. We could have won this game. The VAR was there to help him, normally, to avoid this mistake. The referee may be wrong on the spot, because he may have been disturbed by this fact of play, but the VAR is normally there to help him… ”regretted Sotoca in remarks relayed by the journalist Laurent Mazure.
