In the first half, Atalanta-Lazio is already 2-0 for the home team who took the lead thanks to two goals from Pasalic and De Ketelaere. The latter scored from a penalty kick after referee Marco Giuda awarded the penalty. The reason? A hand touch in the area by Adam Marusic who deflected the ball with his left arm. Thus, the whistle from Pompeii wasted no time and decided for the shot from eleven meters without even waiting for the Var.
What Happened
At 41', the hand touch of the full-back arrived who failed to avoid contact with the ball. The arm was quite wide compared to the body and for this reason Giuda decided to whistle the penalty. Luca Marelli, former Serie A referee and Dazn pundit for the decisions of the match directors, immediately stated after the incident: «Correct the penalty kick. Wide arm of Marusic that increases the volume. Also correct not to admonish by regulation for hand touch». From the penalty spot then Charles De Ketelaere started who wrong-footed Provedel with his left foot and brought the result to 3-0.
