"It is crucial that Blaise Matuidi touches the ball before that," he said in front of Algemeen Dagblad . He surprised Nijhuis that Pitana pointed the point after looking at the pictures. "Because I think he's an authority, he should have dared to say that it was not a penalty kick, even though the VAR had reported on that handball, so you must be strong, I think. "

the Dutchman is sorry that now after the final a lot on the decision VAR. "In a World Cup final, a pretty big podium."
