The defender took responsibility for his mistake but in his explanation he confused a regulatory issue and pointed to referee Lamolina.


Paolo Goltz

starred this Saturday in one of the strangest and most bizarre plays of recent times.

The captain of Colón committed a penalty in favor of Independiente for taking the ball with his hands inside the area after

Ignacio Chicco

touched it to one side.

But why did he react like this?

Once the game was over, the 37-year-old defender made a mea culpa in dialogue with ESPN, although not without contextualizing the action.

“I have a lot of anger left.

You have to take charge and I do it

, ”he started, before explaining.

“We are not in a situation to make these kinds of mistakes, at my age, being the captain of the team, and we need to win.

It annoys me

. "

However,

Goltz was also harsh against Nicolás Lamolina

, whom he accused of having contradictory statements on the court that, according to him, caused the confusion that made him calmly grab the ball, thinking that it was not in play.

“The referee tells me that he does not always have to blow the whistle (to restart the game) but he had previously reversed plays because he had not given the order.

So I don't understand”

, he complained.

In this case, the defender gets confused again because the regulation gives Lamolina the right: the goal kick can be taken without the need for the referee to give the order with his whistle.

“In my case I go with my head thinking that I am going to catch it and Nacho just moves the ball.

And I grab it.

He hadn't felt the whistle either.

And it makes me angry because we are not in a position to give away this type of thing.

I am big enough to assume if it was my mistake, ”

he added before falling back to Lamolina.

“(The referee) He did not give the order, yes.

He says it's not always necessary but on many plays he went back.

He also washed his hands of a yellow card that he had to take from one of Independiente's full-backs, he didn't take penalties… It's

what I felt from inside the field”, Goltz catharsis, who got out of the paper thanks to the draw on the hour of Wanchope.
