Julian Alvarez asks UEFA to change the penalty kicks law!

For the first time since they were knocked out of the Champions League final on penalties in the European derby against Real Madrid, Julian Alvarez breaks his silence and demands that UEFA change the penalty and penalty shoot-out law after the penalty kick he scored was canceled against Real Madrid for touching the ball twice.

What are the details

After Julian Alvarez stepped up to take the second kick for his team, the Argentine managed to score the kick and beat the Belgian goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois, but after returning to the far, the referee made sure that the Argentine touched the ball twice to cancel the goal.

Collective criticism of the referee's decision!

The referee's decision was criticized by a large number of analysts and also a large number of European football fans, especially Atletico Madrid fans, who said that the VAR did not have the clear evidence for the kick that was canceled.

What did Alvarez say!

Speaking for the first time with such frankness, the Argentine said: “I have watched it a thousand times, there are videos everywhere. The truth is that I don't feel the touch, because if there were two touches, the contact is minimal and it is very difficult to perceive it" and by talking this has opened the door to controversy again via social media.

"I think the rule has to be a little clearer because I don’t try to take any advantage and if the goalkeeper is off his line when he makes a save, the penalty is repeated. This is not to take any advantage. It’s a shame what happened"

Julian Alvarez said.
