In the match against Cagliari, which ended with a 2-1 victory for Venezia, Gaetano Oristanio's goal was disallowed. This might be one of the most controversial offside decisions in Serie A history.

Details: Oristanio, who provided an assist to Francesco Dzamparno in the first half, was about to double his team's lead shortly after the break. However, his goal was ruled out due to an offside position by his teammate Joel Pohjanpalo.

To make the correct decision, the referees used technology. The SAOT (semi-automated offside technology) revealed that Pohjanpalo's heel was in an offside position.

Oristanio, who played for Cagliari last season, refrained from celebrating the goal against his former team until he realized that it had been disallowed. It is also worth noting that Venezia won for the first time in two months and moved off the bottom of the league table.
