"We cannot talk about football after what happened today. Something completely unacceptable happened today. It doesn't matter whether it happens to us or someone else, and from tomorrow, presumably VAR will have to change, because it is not acceptable that so many errors keep happening even in big games like this. We've been trying to say since the start of the season that the level of refereeing is not up to the task, and this, unfortunately, is the spectacle we showed to the rest of the world today."
"It happened to many teams this season. We have to change, we cannot keep procrastinating the way we always do in Italian football. I don't know if they're not trained properly, not up to the task, whatever the reason for it, the fact is that referees are not up to the standard of Serie A football."
Inter beat Juventus 3-2 as Piotr Zielinski scored a 90th-minute winner, extending Inter's Serie A lead to eight points. Pierre Kalulu received a second yellow in the 42nd minute for pulling back Alessandro Bastoni, whose fall was viewed as theatrical. Several Juventus players confronted referee Federico La Penna and coach Luciano Spalletti declined to speak to the media. Club director Giorgio Chiellini called the decision unacceptable, demanded changes to VAR and refereeing oversight, questioned referees' training and standards, and said the refereeing designator Gianluca Rocchi should face pressure to stand down.
