Ref gave Sampdoria a penalty there and over turned it, he blew right away and seemed confident, then almost immediantly overturned it after watching the replay. First time I've seen that in action - and I thought it was the penalty and the ref made the right call initially. :lol:

Atalanta v Juve has been decent. Juve dominated the opening 25/30 minutes or so, going 2-0 up, but Atalanta got one back relatively quickly and probably should have equalised since.

Dybala penalty saved. Referee used VAR and still decided it should stand, never a penalty IMO.

very annoying that broadcasters don't seem to be able to show the contentious footage while it's under consideration - reduced my enjoyment of the VAR's comeback against Torino earlier considerably !

tell you what stands out when watching the elite-level teams nowadays - the fitness and conditioning - Juve are going for the win, last five minutes, and got nine blokes back behind the ball defending an Atalanta break - amazing...

edit: I think that may just stand out in stark contrast to watching the wheezing quadraplegics of Hellas and Rovers on a regular basis...

Problems afoot at Modena. They've not been allowed to play their last two home games by the local council because of outstanding debts. Both have resulted in automatic 3-0 defeats. They've lost all their league games so far this season. If they are unable to play their next home game then I believe they will get chucked out of Serie C.
