The UEFA Referees Committee has announced today that Gianluca Rocchi will referee the 2019 UEFA Europa League final between Chelsea and Arsenal at the Baku Olympic Stadium on Wednesday 29 May (kick-off at 23.00 local time/21.00CET).
Rocchi has been an international referee since 2008. This season, the 45-year-old Italian has officiated at six UEFA Champions League matches. This will be the first UEFA Europa League final that Rocchi has overseen, after handling the fourth referee duties in the 2010 encounter between Atlético Madrid and Fulham, as well as the 2017 UEFA Europa League final between Ajax and Manchester United. The same year, he was in charge of the UEFA Super Cup match between Manchester United and Real Madrid.
He will be assisted by compatriots Filippo Meli and Lorenzo Manganelli at the final in Baku, with Daniele Orsato taking the role of fourth official. The video assistant referee team will be led by Massimiliano Irrati, supported by Marco Guida, Szymon Marciniak, and Pawel Sokolnicki.
2019 UEFA Europa League final refereeing team
Referee: Gianluca Rocchi (Italy)
Assistant referees: Filippo Meli, Lorenzo Manganelli (Italy)
Fourth official: Daniele Orsato (Italy)
Video Assistant Referee (VAR): Massimiliano Irrati (Italy)
VAR assistants: Marco Guida (Italy), Szymon Marciniak (Poland)
Offside VAR: Paweł Sokolnicki (Poland)
So, it was too predictable. Good luck for Rocchi and his team. He deserves it. Lets wait for main UCL appointment of the season
ReplyDeleteP.S. Congratulations to our Italian readers;)
Congrats.
ReplyDeleteSo skomina for the finalz
No surprises here regarding referee, 4th and VAR in my opinion.
ReplyDeleteGuida and Meli can travel from Poland (U20WC) to Baku together with Marciniak and Sokolnicki.
I think that Rocchi appointment for this final is deserved. He could have achieved more in his career, but he was always behind the shadow of Rizzoli, who got big games and finals before him. This assignment was in my opinion the minimum for the Italian, who will leave the FIFA list on next December.
ReplyDeleteA particular remark about Manganelli, today he got also the appointment for Coppa Italia final, on next Wednesday (main referee Banti). A very special day for him with two appointments for major finals.
Age limit of 45 rule, was disbanded couple of years back, by FIFA . Why would Rochii be taken off the list ? Interesting to know .
DeleteBecause in Italy it stays as mandatory age for retirement, according to AIA rules.
DeleteAfter 45 years old, you must get a derogation.
Thanks for that piece of info.
DeleteIntresting to see Irrati and Marciniak both in same final... Any chance for one of them for final of UCL since they ware both doing well withh Skomina in games Ajax - Real(marciniak) and Psg-Mutd (irrati)?
ReplyDeleteI think that in Champions League we will see a different VAR team, it would be too much to appoint the same officials for two finals in just a couple of days...
DeleteThanks for info/oppinion:)
DeleteProbably Makkelie as VAR? Or Dankert/Zwayer?
DeleteI would say Makkelie.
DeleteIrrati WC (and EL) final, Makkelie CL final.
However, not sure because Makkelie never got a game with Skomina and indeed he had only Italian / Polish VARs... let's wait and we will know.
Maybe we will see Spanish VARs with a Spanish referee? Skomina or Lahoz, that is the big question. Hopefully, we will know more soon.
DeleteSkomina worked with Makkelie, Soares Dias and Orsato as VAR at the WC and with Marciniak and Irrati in CL.
DeleteSoares Dias (surprisingly) and Orsato were not used by UEFA as VAR in CL so far, so they should be impossible.
I also think, that Maricniak and Irrati are unlikely after the EL final.
So Makkelie seems to be the obvious choice (also because is one of the biggest VAR experts) for Skomina. Probably with van Boekel as one AVAR. The other AVAR could be Zwayer, Dankert, Hernandez, Kamphuis - or even Kuipers.
If it's Mateu, the VAR should be Hernandez anyway - maybe supported by Makkelie.
When we can expect Ucl appoint?
ReplyDeleteI think soon... maybe now 16:00 CET?
DeleteRocchi published at 14:00 CET.
Just remembered , last time - last season , if I am not mistaken , on a similar Monday like this after completion of Semis , the Referees Committee debated a lot and let know the names of Bjorn Kuipers for Europa and Milorad Mazic for Champs league final , at about 19.00 CET. Recall it like that. Perhaps , this time announcement , any time now.
DeleteStrange that no reserve assistant referee has been appointed for EL final. Maybe UEFA has not published his name.

ReplyDeleteThis red card from Sunday has been overturned so the player can play in the FA Cup final.
On the Premier League Channel, in the Refwatch segment, Chris Foy said the the decision to send off the player was correct.
Deletehttps://streamable.com/fyx2u
So this raises the question, why was the red card overturned?
Because the teams and even more so money control the officiating and disciplinary matters in the EPL
DeleteTo my point of view, the delay of appointment referee for UCL final is an opportunity to appoint Lahoz for the final)
ReplyDeleteOT: In regards to concussions
ReplyDelete"The United Soccer League, which contains leagues in the second, third and fourth tiers in the United States and Canada, has submitted a prospective rule change to the International Football Association Board (IFAB), the body that determines the laws of the game in the sport, that would allow for a "head injury substitution." This would allow teams to more carefully examine players with head injuries without having to burn a full substitution."
"The USL's aim is to have the rule in place in the second-tier USL Championship and third-tier USL League One -- assuming IFAB approves the rule -- in time for the 2020 season."
"The rule, as proposed, would work in the following manner: If a player on a team suffers a head injury during a match, the team can use a temporary substitute to take his or her place. This would allow for the injured player to be properly assessed without forcing his or her team to play shorthanded. The substitution can take place even if the team has used all of their allotted substitutions. If the injured player is deemed healthy enough to continue, they can reenter the match in place of the injury substitute. If not, the injury sub stays on the field and is made permanent, unless all of the allotted subs have been used. In that case, the injury substitute would have to come out of the game."

In my opinion DOGSO with attemp to play the ball - YC, what do you think?
Any info about ucl final?
ReplyDeleteActually I hope Michael Oliver/Anthony Taylor leads UEL final because this is English derby, maybe Oliver for main referee and Taylor for 4th official...

ReplyDeleteHow I Got My Ex Husband Back..Am so excited share my testimony of a real spell caster who brought my husband back to me. My husband and I have been married for about 5 years now. We were happily married with three kids, two boy and a girl. 4 months ago, I started to notice some strange behavior from him and a few weeks later I found out that my husband is seeing someone else. He started coming home late from work, he hardly care about me or the kids anymore, Sometimes he goes out and doesn't even come back home for about 3-4 days. I did all I could to rectify this problem but all to no avail. I became very worried and needed help. As I was browsing through the internet one day, I came across a website that suggested that king peso can help solve marital problems, restore broken relationships and so on. So, I felt I should give him a try. I contacted him and told him my problems and he told me what to do and i did it and he did a spell for me. 24 hours later, my husband came to me and apologized for the wrongs he did and promise never to do it again. Ever since then, everything has returned back to normal. I and my family are living together happily again.. All thanks to mark Powerful Love Spell that really works.

It started from small misunderstandings after which he told me that it would be good to take a break, which I think turned into a breakup. He no longer looks for me. This brought me sadness because we have been together since high school and he was my first and only love. I searched for help everywhere on the internet and then i saw so many people putting out testimony comments about Dr Ilekhojie, I got his contact through one of the comments and talked with him about my situation and he explained the process of reconciliation and how he will help me reconcile with him in three days. Its been exactly a month a contacted him now and everything has been perfect and I had to put out this message because he deserves all the good words for helping me. I leave here his contact with all honesty Email: gethelp05@gmail.com or contact him on Whatsapp +2348147400259
