Benoit Cauet believes Inter “would have won the Scudetto in 1998 if there had been VAR” following their controversial loss to Juventus.

The contentious campaign remains famous for one moment in Turin, when Mark Iuliano appeared to body-check Ronaldo in the box and the referee waved play on, with Juve earning a penalty on the counter moments later.

Alessandro Del Piero missed that spot-kick, but it remains an incident that was recalled many times during the Calciopoli scandal.

“We would’ve won the Scudetto with Inter if there had been VAR in 1998,” former midfielder Cauet told Radio Kiss Kiss Napoli.

“There were shocking incidents that season that the whole world was able to see. I still don’t know how it’s possible that penalty for the Ronaldo-Iuliano contact was not given.”
