After several minutes of monitors and controversy, Fabbri first warns the Dea coach then turns off the public’s celebration for what would have been the 2-0 goal. And the former Monza and Fiorentina coach blurts out
Controversies destined to ignite even after the match, those triggered by referee Fabbri’s decision during Atalanta-Roma. Already ahead thanks to Scalvini’s goal (also reviewed on the monitor for a suspected handball, but Svilar makes the patatrac on his own), the Dea doubles their lead in the 32nd minute with a header from Scamacca following Bernasconi’s cross from goal. Everything seems very regular, but after 3′ the whistle of the Ravenna section is called again on the monitor.

All the players ask for explanations, even Palladino does so and gets a yellow card. After another interminable minutes, Fabbri returns to midfield and has to waste more time to push away the players who are on top of him like undisciplined children. In the end the goal was disallowed because Fabbri considered Scamacca himself to be offside at the start of the action. The attacker would have caused Hermoso to make an error in his control, as he returned the ball to the Nerazzurri on a long throw from the back for the action which would then lead to the goal. Scamacca, who had not celebrated as a former (very remote, in his youth days) Roma player, resigned himself. Palladino, on the other hand, shakes his head several times and repeats several times in favor of the camera: “This is a cinema”.
