The only real option in that situ, given the result, is to allow him to run and shoot unopposed. That is ridiculous. A defender needs to be able to make the tackle or what’s the point. Crap decision and we are in a tough spot now. Cmon City.

One thing is for certain these referees are not fit for this standard and that tells you all. First goal came from offside , now penalty yet ref was not even close to see it what happend.

That and he’s bloody crap.

Last yellow card he gave as well should’ve been a foul against a Mainz player.

Yep, he’s a homer. Bows to pressure of fans. Another shite decision just now.

To say the ref is having a shocker is an understatement.

 

[bluemullet]

The yellow given a few mins before was a joke too

UEFA had a campaign recently for new refs. If this is the current standard, I’d say every random should apply to be one.

Apologies if already asked but is this two legs?

I don’t know why anyone would want to be a referee.

Salary isn’t good enough to be abused constantly and never be at home if you make it.

There’s that but I always thought as a kid that it would be interesting to have AI or similar (read too many fantasy novels as a kid) to do it. it should be able to accurately make calls right?

No 90 minutes, then penalties if a draw.
