Following Uruguay’s elimination from the World Cup, Edinson Cavani hit the VAR monitor furiously as he leaves the field.
Cavani has now risen his actions in the face of a disciplinary decision regarding the incident.
The Valencia striker has stated that if he is sanctioned by the FIFA Disciplinary Committee for hitting the VAR monitor, the match’s referee, Daniel Siebert, should be imprisoned.
“If they sanction me for hitting the VAR [monitor], the referee, for knocking us out of the World Cup, they have to put him in jail, because those are mistakes that they cannot make with the VAR, all the cameras, and all the referees who are behind,” he said in an interview.
At the conclusion of the December 2 match against Ghana, the FIFA Disciplinary Committee opened proceedings against Cavani and his national teammates Jose Maria Gimenez (who struck a FIFA official), Diego Godin, and Fernando Muslera (for their protests towards the referee).
Cavani’s statement from Interviews
“I am concerned (about a possible sanction). Yes, it bothers me because it means missing out on competitions with my teammates, club, and national team. It makes me nervous. But these things happen “he explained.
“However, you must take the player’s side, not just the referee’s or others’, to see what happened, why it happened, and why things happened the way they did.”

Cavani admitted that hitting the VAR monitor is “something you shouldn’t do,” but that “sometimes in football certain things lead you to react and to do certain things that sometimes escape you because of the adrenaline that we have, because of that euphoria that we have at that moment, and we make mistakes,” he said.
