“Universitario is the only Peruvian team in the league to have played at their peak less than 72 hours earlier. What if we defined (the title)? Not even (that), because we don’t define, there already is a champion , but I don’t know who cares that Universitario is doing well, because I can’t believe there’s someone who doesn’t understand that this is something that is contraindicated for the footballer’s health,” he said.
What did Jorge Fossati say about VAR in League 1?
The Creme Squad strategist also spoke about the rapid adoption of VAR in the Peruvian league, noting that the technology will help but is not being handled impartially in some cases, and what happened to him in Santa Fe (at the meeting for the South American) happened ).
“It helps, but the VAR is run by men and sometimes they don’t deal with it impartially, like what happened to us in the Santa Fe game. As a veteran, I suggest you don’t just analyze the numbers because that’s the way it is.” “It’s very difficult for them to find out the truth.” Indian.
