Espanyol are currently battling for a place in European competitions, sitting seventh in the La Liga table, and now the club’s president has made a series of radical statements.
Details: Espanyol president Alan Pace stated that the main problem with VAR is subjectivity and inconsistency.
Quote: The problem is that it’s very subjective; there is no consistency. It’s a lie; it doesn’t take six minutes to make a decision, he said.
After 26 rounds, Espanyol have 36 points and sit seventh in the standings. They are four points behind sixth place. In their most recent match, they played out a 2–2 draw with Elche.
Reminder: Espanyol head coach Manolo González previously called it a disgrace to play so late on a Monday night. He noted that it is clear why fans do not attend matches on that day, as most people have work commitments.
