El controversial penalty that San Lorenzo ruled against Godoy Cruz and in which Muniain was indirectly involved has had an unexpected consequence. Iker had to throw it, he was in charge of doing it for his coach, and it didn’t happen like that. Another player, Francisco Fydriszewski, took a shot and missed it. Like Panenka and in the 94th minutewithout moving a score that ended in a draw and that made everyone angry Leandro Romagnoli… who a day later resigned and stopped being coach of the ‘crows’ team.
Fydriszewski ‘steals’ a penalty from Muniain… and misses it trying a Panenka!
Romagnoli already showed his anger in the post-match press conference, but he went further. The coach has presented his resignation and this is what San Lorenzo has announced: “This afternoon Leandro Romagnoli informed president Marcelo Moretti of his decision to stop being the coach of San Lorenzo…”
The Argentine coach has already made clear his tremendous discomfort at the decision that was made on the field without following what was stipulated: “I’m overheated. We found ourselves with a penalty at the end and we couldn’t… I played for 20 years… There is a designated player. He was and is Iker Muniain. But on the court they decided to let him kick. And one is not in the players’ heads. “If I know he’s going to bite her, I get on the court and tell him: ‘Don’t do it,'” he commented at a press conference.
