Guilty of a nasty sole on Corentin Tolisso, released on stretcher, Lucas Stassin was first expelled before finally getting out of it with a yellow card during the derby between Saint-Etienne and Lyon, this Sunday in Ligue 1. The decision, taken after viewing the Var, has no more in John Textor, the boss of the Gones, who did not fail to make it known.
Lucas Stassin was particularly well done. Not like Corentin Tolisso on whom he was guilty of a large sole, and which was evacuated on a stretcher after having twisted in pain. First sanctioned with a red card quickly drawn by referee François Letexier, the Stéphanois finally received a simple yellow card. Called by his assistants, the French referee went to consult the Var and deteriorated after viewing the images.
A controversial decision that has not pleased John Textor, present for his first derby in the cauldron since he was president. And the OL boss was not asked to be known. A few minutes after the interruption of the match due to a projectile received by one of the assistant referees, the American expressed his indignation by posting a message on social networks. “The referee takes out the red card, easy decision. The Var decided otherwise. The referee reflects and one of the most obvious red boxes we have seen is withdrawn … insane,” wrote Textor in his Instagram story, with a photo detailing the action.
John Textor continued on Dazn after the meeting: “The facts speak for themselves. There were big concerns with the refereeing, it is disappointing. Not having been able to have our supporters with us and then there is this red card story. The player remained on the field and the one he injured could not continue the match. We asked the referee what were the standards of FIFA. Share. what we can Doing is writing a letter and asking for explanations.
This is not the first time that François Letexier has been under the fire of criticism. The Frenchman had made the controversial decision not to exclude Wilfried Singo after his violent sole on Gianluigi Donnarumma during Monaco-Psg in December, which had earned a large scales on the face to the Italian goalkeeper. The management of the arbitration had finally recognized an error on his part that day.
