  1. Surprised to see Hernandez again so soon after the CL match!
    Possibly a replacement last week or this week and this was his originally planned match?

    1. me too; or may be committee is really unsatisfied by Sanchez Martinez and Gil Manzano's performances and has decided to switch and to invest on another name since this year. Juve-PSV was judged positive bit it was really easy. Galatasaray-PAOK is really the most important and hard match for this matchday.
      Surprised also by Weinberger, a new name from Austria, which needs to develop somebody at top level.

  2. What's the obsession with Rossetti always sending Italian referees to Manchester United games? 🤔
