"Roma" president James Pallotta gives up - the Italian, after the unsuccessful UEFA Champions League quarter-final, stated that his team was robbed for the second year in a row in this tournament. On Wednesday, "Roma" finished their performance in the Champions League, losing to "Porto" team after extra time with a score of 1:3. The Portuguese scored the third goal during extra time, when Alessandro Florenzi earned an 11-meter penalty. Later, "Roma" wanted a penalty when Patrick Schick fell in the penalty area, but their requests were not taken into account - the referee and VAR team did not see a foul in that incident. J. Pallotta also remembered the semi-final match of last season, when in the return leg against "Liverpool" the referee also made several decisions that were not favorable to them. "After what happened in last year's semi-final, we asked for VAR to be implemented in the Champions League, but last night, when the VAR system already exists, we were robbed again. There was an obvious foul on Patrick Schick in the penalty area. VAR showed it, but still did not give a penalty. I'm tired of all this crap. I give up," said J. Pallotta.
If you give the penalty to Porto (by the way in offside) thanks to the Var you have to see by var also the penalty on Schick. pic.twitter.com/AfjF5UCrak
