Refereeing expert: The offside of the aluminum player was very wrong / The fourth referees only want to warn the middle referee


In an interview with a sports reporter of Fars News Agency, Navid Mozaffari stated about the refereeing of Persepolis’ match against Arak Aluminum at Azadi Stadium: In the 16th minute, Vahid Amiri’s goal was correctly declared offside.

He added: “But in the 39th minute, the offside taken from Bayrami, a player of the aluminum team, was very wrong.” He was not offside at all.

The expert said about the protests of the head coach of Aluminum and the yellow card that the referee gave him: “In general, our fourth referees behave differently instead of calming the game.” They just call the referee and he is forced to come and warn. The fourth official should be the preventer and the calming factor of the game, but they only want the referee to come in the middle and warn.

Mozaffari said about the scene of the clash between the players of the two teams in the 59th minute and the mistake that the Persepolisians believed in a penalty: In this scene, first the Persepolis player was offside when the assistant referee correctly flagged.

Regarding the first goal of Persepolis, which was suspected of being offside, he said: “This scene was suspicious, but we cannot comment on these existing images.”
