    Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk has come out and blasted the VAR decision that saw Luis Diaz’s legitimate goal ruled out for offside.

    The decision has become a talking point in particular because there were no lines drawn to deduce whether it was offside or not given that Diaz looked clearly onside. It was also strange that it took them only a few seconds to make the decision despite it being a tight call.

    The decision has been widely slammed,not just by Liverpool fans, but across the footballing community.

    And Van Dijk has become the latest player to slam the decision calling it ‘a bit strange’. He said (via @JoshLFC1909):

    “I’m losing faith is difficult to say. The VAR should be absolutely clear and obvious with everything they’re deciding on. I’ve seen the still back, I think on live TV there were no lines being shown. It’s all a bit strange, I don’t know who was in the VAR room and making that decision. It’s not a good thing, it doesn’t look well either. It is what it is, we lost.”

    The PGMOL have come out and given a statement admitting that it was a human error and that the decision was wrong.

    Van Dijk is risking getting punished by the FA with his outspoken words against the referee’s decision hinting at something more than just a human error.

    He has already been fined and banned this season by the FA after he was caught swearing at the fourth official against Newcastle.

    FC Barcelona risks being expelled from European competitions!

    FC Barcelona is in a mess. Prosecuted for corruption by the Spanish courts, while former leaders, including Josep Maria Bartomeu will also have to answer for their actions in court, Barça risks taking very expensive in the context of this Negreira affair. As a reminder, the leader of La Liga has, for several years, paid millions of euros to a former referee who is a member of the Spanish referees committee, in order to obtain various services. A case that makes people talk in Spain, of course.

    Barça risks receiving heavy sanctions on the national scene. A financial penalty in the best case, but also the possibility of being suspended from all activity for several years. The team led by Joan Laporta also risks seeing the Liga titles obtained over this period to be defined be withdrawn, and in the worst case, even if it is very unlikely, justice could order the dissolution of the club.

    Farewell to the Champions League?

    And as indicated AS, Barça can also be heavily sanctioned on the European scene. The newspaper explains that the La Liga leader can also simply be expelled from the Champions League. UEFA does not appreciate this type of case, and does not want a club embroiled in dark stories, in its competitions. Mainly for questions of image and ethics.

    What’s next after this ad

    The media cites in particular the examples of various Turkish clubs expelled in the early 2010s, as well as that of Steaua Bucharest, all implicated in corruption cases. The Champions League regulations are very clear on this subject and allow UEFA to suspend clubs in this type of situation. A possibility which is already being studied internally by the organization which governs European football. Barça can therefore tremble…

    Neymar in Barcelona … The Brazilian risks very big!

    As expected, Neymar arrived in Barcelona for the start of a trial on Monday for alleged corruption and embezzlement surrounding his transfer to FC Barcelona in 2013. The proceedings will last until October 31.

    Neymar, PSG Paris Paris Saint-Germain

    The day after the Classico won by Paris Saint-Germain on Sunday evening (1-0) at the Parc des Princes and during which he scored the only goal of the match, the Brazilian international did indeed present himself in front of the Barcelona court on Monday morning, as requested by the public prosecutor. The PSG star will have to deliver his version of the facts in the same way as FC Barcelona. Among the eight other defendants are the player’s parents, two ex-presidents of FC Barcelona (Sandro Rosell and Josep María Bartomeu) and a former manager of Santos (Odilio Rodrigues Filho). The Brazilian club is also being sued, as is the company founded by Neymar’s parents for the management of his career.

    What Neymar risks…in theory

    The public prosecutor is demanding a two-year prison sentence and a fine of 10 million euros against the Brazilian for the facts with which he is accused. But the Seleçao star will never go behind bars, even in the event of a firm conviction since sentences of less than two years are not carried out in Spain. On the other hand, it is hard to imagine Neymar escaping a heavy financial sanction. Among the most anticipated testimonies of this fortnight, we will find on Tuesday that of Florentino Pérez. The prosecution has called the president of Real Madrid to testify, who will intervene by videoconference to explain why, according to him, the secret agreement made two years before this transfer between the Neymar clan and Barça prevented other clubs from interfering. in this file.

    Neymar at the helm!

    The PSG playmaker will also have to testify in court. This hearing should take place on Friday or a week later at the end of the trial depending on the progress of the proceedings. The Brazilian investment company DIS brought the case to court in 2015, claiming to have been wronged in the transfer of the attacker. This company, which held 40% of the player’s economic rights at the time, claims that Barça, Neymar and Santos FC teamed up to conceal the real amount of the operation. Neymar’s lawyers assure that their client has not committed any crime and was fully entitled to collect the 40 million euros received as a signing bonus.
