Bremer’s hand in the area, right penalty? What happened in Atalanta-Juventus

It all happens in the 25th minute. Ederson goes down the right, reaches the back, on the edge of the penalty area, and puts a ball in the center which Bremer, who rushed to mark the Brazilian midfielder, deflects with his hand. The arm of the Juventus defender, who turns at the moment of the opponent’s cross, is at head height and wide. Fabbri initially let it go, causing protests from Atalanta and Palladino’s bench, but was recalled by VAR.

The match director then goes to watch the episode on the monitor and, at the end of the review, awards the penalty kick to Atalanta. Spalletti immediately vents his anger at the fourth official, stating that Bremer’s move was a natural move, but his protests are in vain. Fabbri confirms the decision, Scamacca takes the spot and makes it 1-0.
