Association have written to UEFA head of refereeing Roberto Rosetti seeking clarification on why Scotland’s goal against Spain was disallowed on Thursday night and urging him to clear up “confusion and contradictions”.
It was unclear whether Gozubuyuk had chalked the spectacular effort off because centre half Jack Hendry had been offside or because the defender had fouled goalkeeper Unai Simon. Rosetti was supposed to be the UEFA referee observer at the game in Seville – but the Italian had to pull out for personal reasons and his place was taken by Tomasz Mikulski.“After the on-field review, the decision was offside as the attacking player was touching and standing in front of the goalkeeper.However, Gozubuyuk did not signal for an indirect free kick after watching a replay on his pitchside monitor, he signalled for a foul.
Ryan Christie, the Scotland playmaker, has called for like European football’s governing body to provide clarity on how the new technology is used amid growing unhappiness throughout the game. Christie added: “I’ve seen it back from a few angles. From the match angle, which I’m guessing they have on VAR, it looks like Jack pushes him a little bit. Then you see an angle from behind the goal and he hardly touches him. In any case, the goalkeeper’s already moving to cover his front post.
