Vasco’s legal department wanted to annex the protest over the failure of the VAR in the match to the 2-0 defeat against Internacional. But the document was not attached to the match summary, which is the responsibility of the referee. The Basques protest the failure of the VAR in the first goal -confirmed by field decision, without the use of technology- and they will ask for the cancellation of the game this Sunday in São Januário.
Your The club’s lawyers will enter the Superior Court of Sports Justice, this Monday, and will also send a letter to the CBF to question the VAR problem in São Januário.

The manual for referees and for the implementation of the VAR says that “a match is not invalidated due to a defect (s) in the VAR technology (with respect to the goal line technology (GLT); incorrect decision involving the VAR (given that the VAR is a member of the arbitration; the decision not to review an incident; review a situation that cannot be reviewed. “
In another section, there is a provision for a “system defect”, temporary or permanent. In this case, the referee and the review assistant must always make a decision, “that is, ARBITRATE as if there was no VAR.”

Football director Alexandre Bird protested in a statement ahead of coach Vanderlei Luxembourg’s press conference. The technician also cited a survey from give on the number of VAR interventions in Vasco’s movements.
“Tired of that arbitration point,” BirdFirst, he praised the president of the CBF, Rogério Caboclo, the secretary of the CBF, Walter Feldman and the director of competitions, Manoel Flores. According to the Vasco coach, they did a commendable job of putting the VAR on all Serie A matches. But then he began to harshly criticize the referees.
– We have a problem in this championship, which is the VAR. What happened today is unacceptable. We were in the locker room And when we left for the game, the people from Vasco TV told me that they asked them to take the camera that is on the edge of the pitch, because it could capture an image that could later deny the VAR.. It was unprecedented, we resisted and we were not taken care of. We did not know the reason for this, but it is most likely because the CBF knew that the impediment line was out of calibration, Vasco’s manager revealed.
Bird went on to talk about Rodrigo Dourado’s goal, which did not have the use of technology for review.
– In the first part is Dourado’s match, which in the images we had now we couldn’t be sure if there was an impediment or not. Gaciba said in an interview that the line came to end injustice in football. In the match between Atlético-MG and São Paulo in the first round, the line made a mistake when a goal from São Paulo was canceled. The arbitration committee later published this showing that the line could fail. And today what happened to us is that the line became unbalanced and the decision of the field was imposed. Either you have the VAR for everyone on all offers or you don’t have the VAR. What happened was absurd. If the line was not calibrated, pause the game until it is marked. How do we go back in time to define what happened in that movement? It could have been Inter that was harmed, but it is Brazilian football that was harmed, doing everything possible to deliver a championship while the decisions and the way the Brazilian referees do everything possible to destroy it. CBF’s only justification is that Gaciba will speak. A statement that does nothing. The VAR room is next to ours, before we got here the door opened and I saw that they were on the line drawing the line on the computer. We will view the footage and listen to the recordings at CBF and within 48 hours we will file a match cancellation request at STJD to find out what happened. Regardless of whether you are disabled or not, what you cannot do is change the rules. The match referee told Luxembourg that he will see at home whether he is right or wrong – Bird said in a statement.
“In accordance with the rules applicable to the VAR and provided for in the 2020/21 CBF Soccer Rules, in the games in which the referees use the VAR, the” VAR must automatically “verify” the recorded images of the television cameras , during the entire decision / incident of scoring, penalty or direct or possible red card, or in case of misidentification, using different camera angles and repetition speeds ”(p. 151).
However, that was not what was seen in the Vasco x Internacional match, when Vasco was clearly harmed, again by the way, by VAR. This time, the VAR system stopped working precisely at the moment of checking the goal of Internacional, whose author was clearly in an offside position, as shown by various angles of the television cameras.
This unacceptable VAR failure killed the softness of the match, making it voidable. Therefore, we request the cancellation of the Basque x International match that took place on 02/14/2020, with the consequent rescheduling of the match on a new date and with a fully operational VAR “.
