Referee-Club Meeting, Rizzoli: “Lazio’s penalty was right to be granted…”

The usual meeting between the referees and Serie A clubs occurred today in Milan. During the meeting, AIA arbitrator Nicola Rizzoli spoke about the foul that led to the penalty awarded to Lazio during yesterday’s match against Sassuolo:

The penalty for Lazio was to be granted, the arm was not in a natural position.

A few clear words that do not leave any suspicion about this particular situation in the match: Lazio’s penalty was within the rules of the game and the correct decision was made by referee Rosario Abisso.
