Olympique de Marseille won against Ajax (4-3) this Wednesday evening in the Europa League after a match with a completely crazy scenario. On the Ajax side, we had difficulty conceding the two penalties awarded to OM!
After the defeat of his Ajax, the coach John van ‘t Schip spoke about the two penalties to Radio Veronica. “We conceded two questionable goals, two penalties, the first was very light (a foul by Jorrel Hato on Sarr, Editor’s note). The referee made his European debut. Maybe he was also under high tension. » Same story on the side of Steven Bergwijn on the two penalties. “I haven’t seen the second one yet, but from my point of view, it’s given easily, just like the first. » If the faults are not obvious in both cases they exist, in the first the defender cuts Sarr’s trajectory on the upper body, in the second the goalkeeper completely misses.
