The audios of the conversations between Hernández Hernández from the VOR room and the referee Hernández Maeso were made public at eleven o’clock on Sunday night.
In the play of the penalty awarded to Kaiki, Hernández Hernández tells his colleague from Extremadura; “Fran, I am going to recommend an ‘on field review’ so that you can assess a possible penalty due to a handball by the Almería defender.” “Okay, I’m going to watch it,” he answers. “You put it on super slow so he can see it,” the canary continues. Okay, I’m in front of the screen.” “There you have it, we’re going to put it in super slow so you can see. OK? I’m going to give you another take with the reverse left. I also put you high behind so you can see it in context and the separation between players. Now the action is yours, you decide”, continues the canary. And Hernández Maeso responds: “Perfect. He finishes off the Madrid player and hits the separated arm. Occupying a space for the Almería defender. I’m going to call a penalty without a card.” The shots omit that Rüdiger and Joselu were hindering the defender.
In the disallowed goal against Sergio Arribas that made it 1-3, the conversation is as follows: “Come see it, Fran, I recommend an on field review for a possible offensive foul in the action of the goal. Okay?”, he says. the Canarian referee, who continues “if you want, I’ll give you a wide shot so you can see that it ends in a goal directly from there. I’ll show you the point of contact. Okay?” “Put it in dynamics, please,” responds Hernández Maeso. “Okay? So you can see that it is within the same attack phase. The play continues and ends in a goal,” says Hernández Hernández. The referee finishes: “Therefore, I am going to call a foul in favor of Real Madrid and disallow the goal.”
In Vinícius’ goal that made it 2-2, the conversation is as follows: “There, there, that’s it. Give me the right reverse. Stop at the point of contact. I recommend an on field review so you can assess the non-hand, the possible no-hand,” says Hernández Hernández, who continues: “It hits him in the right shoulder. Fran, I’m going to show you, okay? Let’s play the super slow. It hits him in the shoulder. You assess the possible foul in attack”. And the man from Extremadura responds: “Okay, throw it to me. Give me the point of contact. I’m going to signal a goal, there’s no foul.” And the canary replies: “Okay, play the previous one. That’s it.” And Hernández Maeso concludes: “Perfect, he hits it with his shoulder and it’s a valid goal.” There are no other shots in which you can see that Vinícius hits him with his arm.
