The contested penalty in the Torino-Como match was examined again by VAR, with the decision to cancel Douvikas' goal and confirm Bragança's action on DaCunha. The slow motion highlighted that, although the Como player received contact with Bragança's right foot in the area, the intervention was not enough to prevent him from catching the ball. The final decision was therefore to annul the goal, deeming that the action did not constitute a penalty foul.
According to the analysis, Bragança's action was classified as "negligent", without the possibility of interfering with the ball. VAR Marini, despite being involved in the decision, confirmed that the ball was already in play when DaCunha received the contact. The decision was also taken into account that the ball was already over the goal line, although not very far, and that the action arose from a legitimate recovery by Milla on Bragança.
On the pitch, the match remained pending at 1‑0, with Douvikas' goal disallowed. There was no foul by Fitz‑Jim on Ramon during the recovery of the ball. VAR then confirmed that there was no incorrect intervention by the Torino players.
The final result of the match therefore remains 1-0 in favor of Torino, with the VAR decision confirming the absence of a penalty foul. Como, on the other hand, remains awaiting a possible re-evaluation of the arbitrary decisions, while Torino will be able to count on a one-point advantage in the standings. Como's next match promises to be crucial to recover lost ground, while Torino will continue to focus on their form to consolidate their position in the league table.
