Unanimous clamour! The Italian press desató a wave of indictments against the arbitration commissioned to give justice in the commitment of gone of the eighth of final of the UEFA Champions League between the Atalanta and the Real Madrid. The red card to Freuler was the detonante of criticisms that did present in the media in Italy, that even signalled that the referee was "indecent", of "shame".
The recognised Italian newspaper 'The Gazzetta dello Sport', in his cover, titled "Red of anger" and defined the expulsion of the player of the Atalanta as "non-existent" and "a gift to the Real Madrid": "The referee conditioned the party transforming a yellow in red in the 18'". It underlined , besides, the possible simulation of Casemiro in the 82', when "Pasalic hardly touched him", but Stieler "thought it to him twice before showing him the second yellow".
By his part, the 'Ran dello Sport', cost of a colloquial expression to stamp in his cover: "Cornuti and mazziati", which means: "Horned and hit", that uses to report an unfair and double damage. The newspaper put a list of the referee's errors committed in the party "the penaltis denied to Juventus and Lazio". Besides, his director Ivan Zazzaroni wrote in his publisher: "UEFA, are able to delete them alone".
Multiple half tildaron like a "lack of respect" by part of the UEFA to the teams of the Series To, underlining the maximum penalty that denied him to Cristiano Ronaldo in the last played of the Port wine – Juventus, and the another to Milinkovic-Savic during the Lazio-Bayern (with the 0-1 in the marker), that according to the technician Inzaghi "could change the history" of this party that finished with a marker arrollador (1-4).
Likewise, 'Tuttosport' said 'present' in the catchword, and spoke directly of "theft", with a "Atalanta heroic" and a "disastrous referee". According to the criterion of the newspaper of Turín was "a scandal" teach him the red card to Freuler in place to admonish it as as it required the fault committed by the player of the Italian group.
Once again, the Madrid wrapped in controversy
They do not cease the controversial surroundings to the picture merengue with regard to supposed 'gifts' referee's in the UEFA Champions League. The tricampeonato is full of these indictments based in decisions of the referee quite controversiales. In this opportunity, a slanted Madrid measured in front of a powerful Atalanta, that from the start of the party saw ultrajado in the defence, and that without his fundamental pieces in the attack and fractionated backwards, fell in front of the picture merengue (0-1).
