Overview
- Inter and Atalanta drew 1-1 at San Siro in a match defined by disputed decisions, leaving Inter winless for a third straight game in all competitions.
- Referee Gianluca Manganiello did not award a penalty for Giorgio Scalvini’s contact on Davide Frattesi, and VAR officials Matteo Gariglio and Daniele (Davide) Chiffi did not send him to a review.
- Former referees Graziano Cesari and Mauro Bergonzi publicly criticized the handling of key incidents, with both calling the Frattesi episode a clear penalty, while differing on whether a push on Denzel Dumfries preceded Atalanta’s equalizer.
- Goal.com, citing Corriere dello Sport, reports that Manganiello, Gariglio and Chiffi are set to be suspended for a few Serie A matchdays following the controversy.
- Corriere dello Sport also reported that deputy designator Andrea Gervasoni proposed the officiating crew for the game, while refereeing chief Gianluca Rocchi is expected to review the incidents and decide on any formal discipline.
