Ligue 1 – After Nice-Nantes (1-1): Nantes and Antoine Kombouaré do not digest the penalty whistled by Mr. Letexier – Eurosport FR

Nantes seemed to play against fate on Sunday at the Allianz Riviera in Nice (1-1). But by dint of rowing against the current, the people of Nantes lost control, a feeling of injustice screwed in their minds. The first fact of play occurred early in the meeting. After 19 minutes of play, Mattia Vitti is guilty of a double hand in the middle of the box, after a header from Ludovic Blas. The referee of the meeting, François Letexier, consults the VAR and finally decides not to award a penalty to the visitors. An incomprehensible decision for Antoine Kombouaré, who especially had little taste for the justification of the fourth referee. “I wanted (to see the referee at the break, editor’s note), but he did not want to receive me, he castigated at the break at the microphone of Canal +. I hate lies. It makes me mad The fourth referee tells me that the referee does not whistle for a penalty because the ball hits the body first and the hand after. It is not possible. I have reviewed it and it hits both hands. I understand that “He doesn’t whistle. But he can’t lie to me. I hate that. Let him be wrong, there’s no problem, but don’t tell me nonsense (sic). It’s prohibits that.”Ligue 1It’s heating up in Nantes, Kombouaré threatens: “No player will come without my agreement”26/08/2022 At 11:31 We want honesty and justice! , the people of Nantes found the fault and rewarded a good score with a counter-attack concluded closely by Ignatius Ganago (49th). What to blur the anger of the Canaries. Until additional time and a new episode against the visitors. Embarrassed in his aerial duel with Dante, Jean-Charles Castelletto was found guilty of a hand in his area. Without even having been called to consult the VAR, François Letexier bluntly awarded the penalty to the Aiglons (90th + 3). The decision too much for Antoine Kombouaré and his men. “How do you want us to respect the referees, how do you want us to respect these guys, hastened to belch the Canaries coach at the final whistle. He will not even see the VAR on the penalty! We want honesty and justice!” Guilty of having scolded the referee, Alban Lafont and Kader Bamba were expelled after the meeting. is that there are two red cards (Alban Lafont and Kader Bamba, Editor’s note). I hope they will be able to make their own self-criticism, and especially to remove the red cards. I cannot accept that “Nicolas Pépé, Andrei Girotto and Nicolas Pallois during Nice – Nantes in Ligue 1Credit: Getty Images It’s never clear (…), all the referees must agree among themselvesMore than the substance, it’s is above all the form that offends the people of Nantes. “At half-time when I see the images again I tell myself that either I have shit in my eyes or it’s (the fourth referee) a thug, a liar, Kombouaré gets carried away after the meeting. And there…” Same story with Pedro Chirivella, who expressed his dismay at the lack of clarity of the arbitration decisions. “Can someone explain to me why there is no penalty in the first half? Before each season, the referees come and talk to us about the rules concerning penalties. But it’s never clear. all the referees come to help us and explain to us whether there is a hand or not. One match is a hand, the other is not. We have to talk because we have no idea when there is a penalty or not. All the referees must agree among themselves. “The frustration is up to the level of play offered by the Nantes, mobile and sharp in transition. “It’s hard to digest, we had a very big match, laments Chirivella at the microphone of Canal + after the meeting. We prepared for it well throughout the week.” In the midst of the chaos, Kombouaré pointed well “a block too low at the end of the match.” These slag erased, Nantes will certainly be on the right path to move away permanently from the red zone (15th, 11 points).
