Cairo: ‘VAR? It evens out…’

Urbano Cairo points out Torino were hurt by a VAR error too, and advises Lazio “these things even out”.

The Biancocelesti were furious when Ciro Immobile was sent off and they were denied a penalty in Monday’s 3-1 defeat to the Granata, with fans even calling on them to withdraw from Serie A.

“We were also damaged against Bologna, and these things even out,” Cairo shrugged, speaking at the Gazzetta dello Sport Awards last night.

“There can still be mistakes, but VAR eliminated 90 per cent of them.

“Andrea Belotti? Il Gallo is growing and he’ll get back to scoring, with Lazio he hit the inside of the post, it was incredible. On another day he’d have scored.

"In January the starters won’t change, maybe we’ll take someone for the second string.”
