It is common for the biggest teams to have help from the referees. But in the new era of arbitration, this should not happen. With the Video Assistant Referee (VAR) there should be more justice and more possibility to correct mistakes made by the referees. But it seems that this is not normal in France.

Or is it that only PSG has such a benefit from the referees? The truth is that this is very possible, at least in France. The performance of the referees in what Christophe Galtier called the most important game in French football was ridiculous. That's why we also wonder what was he thinking when he exploded at that press conference.

The most controversial play was not that unmarked penalty, but a red card to a Marseille player. Neymar exaggerated, as always, a foul. But the referee found it unlikely that someone would touch the Brazilian idol, so he decided to expel Samuel Gigot without a doubt. Despite fouling the winger and barely touching him, the referee decided to send him off without hesitation.

The penalty that did not mark the referee or the VAR

Nordi Mukiele put his hand up on Alexis Sanchez's shot in the second half of the French Derby. Incredible as it may seem, neither the VAR nor the referee decided to mark the play in favor of the visiting team. In the end, the match ended 1-0 with a goal from Neymar. Without a doubt, the referees this time blatantly benefited PSG
