Benfica player knocks out referee

[Andouble]

how are players supposed to 'respect the game and the officials' when the refs do the same thing when touched. He went down like he got knocked the fuck out. He should lose his license.

i think, he just didn´t expect to be hit. Better picture here at 0.16.

If he hits the back of his head on the ground it's quite conceivable that he could have been knocked out.

Its funny how the players continue to argue with him when he's flat out!!

The ref should be booked for diving, shocking acting
from the ref.

he seemed to be out while he was falling though.

surely if he was still conscious we would have tried to resist the fall?
