shout. Italian hiller Sarah Gama’s red card has been changed to yellow after a VAR review.
It wouldn’t have happened if Hannah Glass had been a judge.
– I think it’s careless. For me, it’s red, says the Sweden right-back.
With the Italian team trailing 0-5 after the first half against France on Sunday night, the atmosphere in the Italian team was a bit furious.
This led to some difficult situations. First, French winger Delphine Cascarino was kidnapped. Then in the 63rd minute, Italian captain Sarah Gama came late in a duel with the French by three goals, Grace Giroud. Gama met the hip-high French woman with studs.
Referee Rebecca Welch received the red card, but after the VAR review, the referee was changed to yellow.
Swedish right-back Hanna Glass is officiated the day after the match by Sarah Gama.
– I think it’s careless. I don’t understand how you can throw yourself into such a situation, but everyone has different ways to play. But it may not be something she did as an advocate, she says.
Ericsson was decisive
If she caught the barrel, she wouldn’t change the red card.
– It’s hard, I don’t know if it’s up to the judge to decide. I do not know how to assess this situation. I’m no judge, so red for me is another matter, she says.
Former FIFA referee, now TV expert, Jonas Erickson It was after the decisive incident to amend the sentence.
– He said in SVT that he is insensitive, unprofessional, and it is completely wrong to change him.
Jonas Ericsson believes the decision will make the referees unsafe and nervous for the rest of the tournament.
Sweden defender Hanna Glass does not hope so.
“Maybe it certainly is, so hopefully the VAR will enable them to make more informed decisions,” says Glass.
