French referee Letexier ignored Juventus\u2019 penalty kick appeals in the first half and needed VAR checks to give\u00a0<span>Michele Di Gregorio a straight red and Leipzig a penalty<\/span>\u00a0only five minutes later.<\/p>\n<p>Former Serie A referee Gianpaolo Calvarese said last night that Juventus should have been given a penalty kick for a foul on Dusan Vlahovic in the first half, while Di Gregorio\u2019s red card was legitimate.<\/p>\n<p>Italian sports papers are pretty harsh on Letexier on Thursday morning.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Read more \u2013\u00a0Thiago Motta trolls VAR and jokes about Gatti\u2019s \u2018red card\u2019<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>On page 3, Gazzetta rated the French official 4\/10.

However, VAR \u201csuddenly woke up\u201d and urged Letexier to the pitchside monitor.<\/p>\n<p>Gazzetta insisted that Letexier should have done the same to check the Vlahovic penalty incident in the first half but didn\u2019t do so in a \u201cmix of distraction, hasty and arrogance.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Tuttosport went beyond writing on Thursday\u2019s front page that the Bianconeri were like an \u201canti-theft team\u201d in Leipzig and managed to win the game \u201cdespite the referee.\u201d<\/p>\n<picture><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"980\" height=\"1446\" src=\"https:\/\/icdn.football-italia.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/tuttosport-021207542.webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/icdn.football-italia.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/tuttosport-021207542-310x457.webp 310w,https:\/\/icdn.football-italia.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/tuttosport-021207542-320x472.webp 320w,https:\/\/icdn.football-italia.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/tuttosport-021207542-414x611.webp 414w,https:\/\/icdn.football-italia.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/tuttosport-021207542-630x930.webp 630w,https:\/\/icdn.football-italia.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/tuttosport-021207542-768x1133.webp 768w,https:\/\/icdn.football-italia.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/tuttosport-021207542-770x1136.webp 770w,https:\/\/icdn.football-italia.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/tuttosport-021207542-900x1328.webp 900w,https:\/\/icdn.football-italia.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/tuttosport-021207542.webp 980w\" data-sizes=\"(min-width:1665px) 1155px, (min-width:768px) 69vw, (min-width:576px) 60vw, 92vw\" ><\/picture>\n<nav aria-label=\"Posts\">\n<h2>Post navigation<\/h2>\n<\/nav><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Italian sports papers blamed referee Fran\u00e7ois Letexier on Thursday and Gazzetta said the French&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2675,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[34],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2674","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-serie-a-breaking-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.3.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Letexier could have ruined the game: Italian media blame referee despite Juventus&#039;
