Stuart Attwell moved from Lillestrøm SK vs LASK to FK Sarajevo vs Atalanta BC. Vilhjálmur Alvar Þórarinsson other way round.
ReplyDeleteSiarhiej Cynkievič and Irfan Peljto also with switched games.
Markus Häcker has replaced Mike Pickel. Any info about the reason for that from our German readers?
Stefan Apostolov removed from fourth official duties in Alashkert FC vs FK Sutjeska. Possible consequence of disasterous performance in Rosenborg BK - Valur Reykjavík?
The switch between Attwell and Þórarinsson has been clearly decided after the unexpected 2-2 in first leg in Italy... I think even Collina was directly involved there, after having got many criticisms by Italian teams on last KO stage.
DeleteI would have liked to see the Icelandic, but maybe this game became too much for him...
About Apostolov, well, I don't remember a so poor performance by years, I must be honest there, with all the respect. But it was not so much a question of decisions in a way or another way, he looked too much unsure before whistling. This can't work at this level.
about the switch Attwell and Þórarinsson, maybee this has something to do with the observer..... in Serbia Kristinn Jakobsson is appointed, he can't observe an Icelandic referee.... maybee not beacause they didn't trust the referee enough
DeleteMassimiliano Irrati has a very good game too!
ReplyDeleteGood news for pita falta and the other spanish readers. The La Liga is coming on guesstheref.com!
ReplyDeleteWe will see six (!) French Teams in the 2nd leg of the second qualifying round of the Europa League - maybe UEFA kept them all for the 2nd leg with regard to the domestic championship which starts only one week later. But most other major leagues even start one additional or even more weeks later ...
ReplyDeleteAnd a seven the same week for champions league !
ReplyDeleteI think, Chefren just found the reason for this in bis current post. 😉
Deletehis
DeleteYes :)
DeleteWhat is the reason?
DeleteThe meeting in Nyon will all Category 1 referees busy.
DeleteBut Letexier (CL), Abed, Brisard, Delerue, Millor, Rainville and Schneider (EL) are second category.
DeleteBianchi for Higler, seems like important observer too?

Rainville is remplaced by Petrescu in Radnicki - Tel Aviv
ReplyDeleteWow, last minute change. It was Rainville reported around 12:00 CET when I last checked... Thanks!
DeleteReason for this replacement?
DeleteRainville is often injured.
DeleteSzymon Marciniak has been appointed to take charge of the 2018 UEFA Super Cup
ReplyDeleteAt the end this game in Sarajevo was more than easy... 0-5 in first half. Incredible that first leg ended 2-2.
ReplyDeleteAll is possible in football. Remember last season.
DeleteCan you say more about the performance? Lenient approach? What kind of crucial mistake?
ReplyDeleteTo be honest, I don't see any problem with a referee from France officiating in Luxembourg. If he did mistakes, it was not for this reason, and not in favor of one side...
ReplyDeleteI would like to see these incidents, if you have some clips when available, please post on the blog.
There is no handball here...
ReplyDeleteUnbelievable ending on Atromitos - Dinamo Brest. 1-1 at 95'.
ReplyDeleteEitan Shemeulevitch had a generally good performance with very good disciplinary control. Some mistakes on foul detection and not so much consistency.
But he made a crucial mistake which affected the qualification. At min. 74' he disallowed a goal by Atromitos for a push. Replay doesn't show anything so it's a perfectly legal goal.
Definitely a 7.9.
How do you know that he disallowed the goal for a "push"??
DeleteProbably, a handball there? I would like to see a better replay.
DeleteHe made a hand gesture pointing to a player. Since the goal was scored by a header, we can rule out handball.
Deletehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OUiNf-o293Q
DeleteThe disallowed goal.
I don't see any foul there, for me crucial mistake.
DeleteSad to say it, but - typical Shmuelevich. He started as a ref with great potential, but... he can give a very solid performance, but almost always ruins it with a crucial mistake...
DeleteArnold Hunter made a crucial mistake which affected the qualification, not appointed a penalty in the gate of FC Ufa (RUS). There was an obvious hand play at min. 35'.
ReplyDeleteIndeed. It seems that he missed it.
DeleteVery poor Dingert in Lech vs Soligorsk. He missed Second YC for hand and missed PK in extra time for Lech.
ReplyDeleteBut 3 RC for Soligorsk...
Deletehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=axz8GBHTcFc
DeleteHere you can find at least the three RCs:
1) Probably for insulting the referee after a caution for dissent - strict dealing with protest in the tradition of German referees
2) 2nd YC for a reckless foul - borderline to SFP
3) VC in the following confrontation - we have to believe in Christ here ;)
FH Hafnarfjörður (ISL) - Hapoel Haifa FC (ISR)
ReplyDeleteReferee: Siarhiej Cynkievič (BLR)
According to the website of the UEFA in the match there were only 13 fouls. The result was opened until the last seconds.
Really not impressed by refereeing in past few days. I watched 1 game each day (Hapoel-Dinamo, Midtyiland-Astana(already mentioned these 2 yesterday)) and today Alashkert-Sutjeska. In all of the matches referees really werent able to stamp their authority on the game, werent accepted by the players on the pitch and coaching staff and near the end of each of these games there was at least some minor confrontation between players
ReplyDeleteI didn't like how Letexier solved a massive riot in HBS - DIN. Probably missed a foul on #24 HBS just before it.
DeleteYesterday: AZ Alkmaar - Kairat Almaty. Referee Dimitar Meckarovski (MKD) gives a penalty to Kairat.
ReplyDeletehttps://fcvideo.nl/video/europa-league-penalty-kairat-tegen-az~QR6JJ6B/
Supportable of (big) mistake?
I think this was foul by attacker...
DeleteIMO is supportable.
DeleteExtended refereeing highlights of Christian Dingert in Lech Poznań - Shakhtyor Soligorsk
ReplyDeletehttps://ok.ru/video/928274647660
Wow, thanks. 20 minutes of refereeing highlights is something extra-ordinary in terms of work. Will watch and then I will give my opinions!
Delete18' could have been RC for SFP
Delete46' missed YC,close to AR1
58' another YC for me but maybe in this case less mandatory than 46'
In most of the situations leading to RC, as Philipp S. wrote, you must trust referee, of course, but 119' was in my opinion a SFP, should have been straight RC.
Dingert tried to avoid card, but given the game he was forced, especially in extra time. I think if he had known that before, he would have officiated in a different way, but that's of course impossible.
About the deliberate handball: people should understand the difference between a bookable handball and a "blatant" one, the only being blatant doesn't make it 100% bookable. That's difficult to explain, believe me, also here in Italy.
About the penalty appeals in all situations I agree or at least I can support his decisions.
Definitely not so bad, given the extremely difficult context.
