Interesting observer choice at Lithuania.
Deletewhy edward?
DeleteBecause Tritsonis is partly responsible for the mess we observe in Greek refereeing. And yet he is rewarded with an appointment.
DeleteOk.thank you for the information
DeleteOT:
ReplyDeletehttps://dfb.bonifatius.de/SRZ-05-2018/index.html#p=25
The DFB published the new referee "newspaper"/journal.
On page 25 the intensively discussed penalty appeal of Serbia against Switzerland is "solved" by declaring, that the Serbian Player did the "clearest offence"; so Brych has made the right decision, in opinion of the german football ferderation.
True, it was published a while ago. DFB has always backed and supported Brych‘s decision in that game. So, nothing really new.
DeleteLike every FA would back his referee. It's fully expected.

DeleteOpinion DFB is funny as circus.
ReplyDeleteSo useful, have a page on Instagram called refbible so always helps
ReplyDeleteTobias Stieler will officiate the friendly game NED - PER.
ReplyDeleteWaiting for the full appointment...
any match for sidiropoulos?
DeleteLet's wait, maybe we will see him in Nations League...
Deletedo you have any internal info?
DeleteIs Albania v Israel some sort of "derbi"? Or is it a politically charged encounter? Or are there previous incidents in matches between these two nations that makes it a high risk encounter? I ask because Kassai (Elite Category) is assigned as the referee. Or is it a signal by the Ref Comm that they don't yet fully trust Kassai for "bigger things".
ReplyDeleteBefore their match in 2016, there were terror threads and during the match 2 red cards by Elite referee Aytekin.
DeleteHowever I think, it's also a bad sign regarding Kassai's standing.

ReplyDeleteBig appointment for Makkelie...
DeleteKruzilak likely missed penalty for Montenegro
ReplyDeleteMissed YC for Krychowiak?
ReplyDeleteGreat game in Bologna. Zwayer has a really good rapport with players. He was able to have some friendly talks with them, smiling nicely, too. I didn't expect it from him, at least to such extent.
ReplyDeleteHe quickly read the character of this game - many cynical fouls - and issued the first YC to Chiellini for reckless tackle on Lewandowski in 9th minute. One minute later, he should have booked another Italian player for reckless stamp but I think he deliberately let it go unpunished. Another YC came in 14th minute; reckless studs attack by Klich. After that, there was still hot atmosphere on the pitch. Krychowiak committed two late fouls and Italians tried to convince Zwayer he should book him, but instead of that he chose to issue a YC one minute later for late but careless tackle of Błaszczykowski - harsh YC but perhaps a good tactical choice. Then, the game calmed down a bit. In 30th minute, he could have booked Italian for SPA but again no card was shown.
Although I would like to see a referee who punishes what is in front of him instead of cautioning players rather randomly 'to manage the game', I have to say I saw a real Elite Category referee in the first half.
I fully agree, you have the impression that he has a very high acceptance by players and he is in full control.
DeleteOne can question about the possible cards in first half, but the overall picture is strong. And I liked his choice to book immediately players to give a signal.
So far for sure a very good performance, when about 15 minutes are missing.
Wrong second yellow card by Kruzilak for Mugosa
ReplyDeletePK from Zwayer. Very debatable for me, and if it's called, should have been 2nd YC...
ReplyDeleteGenuine attempt to play the ball inside the penalty area, SPA: no card.
DeleteTrue.
DeleteBut I don't see still a PK. Neither the Spanish commentators do.
I can agree!
DeleteThe penalty is very debatable because Polish player clearly hit the ball before the opponent, was that enough to consider the challenge as a fair?
ReplyDeleteTrailing leg tackle, Chefren. Do you remember what happened to Luke Shaw after such tackle? For me, it's not only obvious penalty but also a missed mandatory 2nd YC to Błaszczykowski for a reckless nature of tackle.
DeleteTotally agree with RayHD. More than that, polish defender only touched the ball which remained in the Chiesa's control area (defender didn't play the ball in a clear way; the ball remained, more or less, in the same place)
DeleteVideo:
Deletehttps://streamable.com/safa6
A big mistake by Zwayer. Will he be relegated to referee to lowest level games in Europe? It was obviously a very correct tackle by Blaszczykowski, no foul at all. Chiesa should be booked for diving.
Delete@autor
DeleteYour opinion is very harsh.
Maybe not a clear penalty, but for me no clear mistake either. Very difficult (or nearly impossible) to see, while most contact and intensity of this tackling goes to the striker. So it seems supportable.
Not very good performance by Kruzilak tonight. IMO he could easily given the penalty for Montenegro for a foul by Sapunaru on Boljevic. Second yellow card for Mugosa was to harsh. It was genuine attempt to play the ball. Also his movement wasnt good. He interfered with the play or got hit by the ball on several ocasions.
ReplyDeleteP.S. I am from Montenegro so i am maybe subjective about two key incidents but i think that many people here will agree with me if/when they see them
http://mscom1.matchat.online/embed/euVajANM2S.
DeleteHere is the video that includes both incidents that i mentioned above, although possible penalty incident is best seen from reverse angle
Portugal u21- Romania u21
ReplyDeleteReferee: Ali Palabıyık (TUR)
73' red card for Romania (preety harsh 2nd yellow card)
90' red card for Romania (2 yellows cards in 87' and 90')
than 9 minutes of extratime !!!
90+9 penalty for Portugal (missed)
The game was not on TV in Romania, I watched it on a very bad stream. I don't want to comment more because I wasn't able to see the game at a proper quality. But ....
Highlights of the POR vs ROU u21 match: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1B3LgHrtALw
Delete4:09 - first RC for Romania, maybe not enough for 2nd yellow but supportable call;
5:25 - second RC for Romania, a normal holding at the center of the field, POR attacker was running towards his own goal, never a 2nd YC;
6:16 - penalty for POR in min 90+9 - blatant dive for me, POR #8 is not even touched, he just leaves his right foot behind and falls down.
Worth mentioning that the Turkish ref awarded 7YC and 2RC for Romania, who made only 10 fouls in the entire game! This is by far the biggest card / foul ratio I have ever seen in a football match.
Also extremely surprising to see 9 mins of stoppage time awarded for the second half, considering there is no VAR interruption, there was no major injury and 3/6 substitutions were either at half time or in stoppage time.
Hopefully UEFA Integrity Unit will investigate this ref as it's pretty obvious all decisions were took in favor the Portugal.
The penalty is clearly a simulation, in my opinion.
DeleteAbout the RCs, both are supportable calls, of course both could have been NO CARD as well. I think that in the second situation, referee issued the card because the holding was blatant, and, despite of the fact that it wasn't a promising attack, as it is reported in some RAP's editions, this kind of foul can be punished by a YC because it shows disrespect for the spirit of the game.
I would like to know more about the 9 minutes of added time, what happened in second half?
