“The matter did not need to refer to the video technology, the referee realized that there was a mistake by Fran Garcia, but from my point of view it is a mistake that should not be punished with the maximum penalty,” Burol said
The referee awarded a penalty kick to Rayo Vallecano in the 65th minute, on Dani Carvajal, as the ball touched his hand, and Oscar Trejo took it, but goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois saved it
Referring to the video technology, the match referee decided to retake the penalty due to Courtois’s advance on the goal line, and this time Trejo placed it under the left of goalkeeper Courtois in the 68th minute
On this case, Borol explained, “Carvajal’s hand was clear, and it was a penalty without discussion, and it had to be returned because Courtois’s foot was far from the goal line
