Europa League, serious mistake by Orsato in Eintracht-Benfica: validation of offside German goals
FRANKFURT – If the Italian teams disappoint in Europe, even the referees don't joke. Orsato di Schio was the author of a disastrous performance during the Europa League match between Eintracht Frankfurt and Benfica. The Italian referee validated Kostic's goal despite being scored in a clear offside. This goal gave the Germans the advantage that later in the second half went through thanks to Rode's markings. Orsato's mistake was decisive for the qualification of Eintracht Frankfurt in the Europa League semifinals and it cost the elimination of Benfica from Portugal who attacked him severely. We remember that in the Europa League there is no var and therefore the referees cannot be helped by technology as in Serie A and in the Champions League.
Eintracht Frankfurt in the Europa League semifinals, will play against Chelsea.
