Rrahmani-Wesley contact, right penalty? What happened in Naples-Rome

Protests in Naples-Rome. Today, Sunday 15 February during the Maradona match valid for the 25th matchday of Serie A, a penalty kick was awarded due to Rrahmani’s intervention on Wesley in the area, with the referee Colombo immediately pointing to the spot and Malen converting the penalty for his brace and the new lead for Gasperini’s team. But what happened?

It all happens in the 68th minute. Malen himself controls a ball in midfield and serves the descent of Wesley, who runs at full speed on the left and enters the area, crossing his run with Rrahmani. The Napoli defender is impetuous and is unable to control his enthusiasm, hitting his opponent on the left ankle. Colombo, very close to the action, points to the spot.

After checking that all starting positions are regular, the VAR confirms the race director’s decision.
