Controversy with the Clermont-Reims referee

Controversy with the Clermont-Reims referee

After his team's defeat at Clermont (4-1), Will Still, the coach of Stade de Reims, was very annoyed by Mr. Batta's performance. Will Still says he lived “the worst day of his young coaching career” after the defeat of Stade de Reims in Clermont (4-1). The Champagne coach was especially angry with his players, who are going through a very difficult time, but he also had something to say about the performance of the referee, Florent Batta. In a conversation with his counterpart Pascal Gastien at the final whistle, captured by Prime Video cameras, Will Still complained about the refereeing, and in particular the fourth goal, where an offside position by an attacker Clermontois (close to the Reims goalkeeper on the shot) was not sanctioned.
