Lars Villiger saves a point for Lucerne in extra time. As the cross comes flying his way, teammate Löfgren pushes Vallci, who falls to the ground. If you look at this as an individual scene, there is clearly intent, says Urs Meier (65). Therefore “the goal should not have counted”.
Meier also does not share the opinion of referee Urs Schnyder in a second decision. At the beginning of the match, Simani from Lucerne is extremely aggressive. First he yanks Geubbels by the neck, after which he also grabs Stanic in the face during the scuffle. Both Simani and Geubbels receive a yellow card. Meier says that you may not see everything on the field, but also thinks that “Simani is incredibly lucky that he did not see red.” However, there is praise for Stanic, who, according to Meier, “reacts honestly and does not lie on the ground to imitate the dying player”.
Meier praises the referee team at the classic
Everything was done well, says Meier about the controversial scene in the classic. FC Basel and FC Zürich parted ways without a winner. Referee Sandro Schärer caused a commotion in the final phase. He whistled a penalty for Zurich and overturned the decision after VAR intervened. The reason: while studying the video, Schärer saw that Rohner had previously elbowed Schmid from Basel in the head in a duel. The penalty for Zurich becomes a free kick for Basel.
Former referee Urs Meier is full of praise for the way in which the referee handled it. Even though he emphasizes that the elbow bump had been visible in the match. But: “Schärer did very well and looked at the whole thing calmly.” Therefore, Meier concludes: “The referee team has done an excellent job.”
No free kick for Lugano
In another controversial scene, Meier disagrees with the referee. Luganesi’s 1-0 result came from a free kick they received due to a handball. What Luca Cibelli classifies as hands is, for Meier, a natural movement without any intention. Therefore, “there should have been no free kick and therefore no goal for Lugano.” The question now is whether VAR is allowed to intervene or not. According to the rules he is not allowed to do that. “In my opinion that is wrong,” Meier said. “Because a goal comes from the scene.” (beer)
