(ANSA) - Rome, March 14 - A group of 11 Lazio fans has taken
legal action with a justice of the peace against the referees
and assistant referees of their side's 3-1 defeat to Torino in
December over a controversial decision they say cost it the
match.
Lazio's Italy forward Ciro Immobile got a red card at the end
of the first half with the score at 0-0 when the
video-assistant referee (VAR) analysed footage of him shoving
his shoulder into the face of a Torino defender.
But the VAR ignored the Rome side's strong shout for a
penalty for handball in the move that led up to that incident.
