"We need to stay calm and analyze the situation. There are several countries that have adopted VAR, and this should be done in Europe as well, because it is here who decides who will go and who does not. We tonight deserved at least the extension. Beyond that, UEFA referee Pierluigi Colina does nothing but beat Italian teams, referees' definitions may be made to show that although Italians are neutral. The referee must change every three years, finally. See what wrongs have happened this year in matches of Lazio, Roma and Milan, not just ours. Technology can eliminate dietary mistakes from every pitch, "Andrea Angeli said after the rematch with Real Madrid. "It is clear that VAR is necessary in the Champions League, because these things are unacceptable. Jeco was overturned and no penalty was awarded, a hand was awarded and no penalty and a red card were given, and they threw Sik in the area and also did not impose an offense. The arbitration was funny. It is a shame to be excluded in this way. Congratulations to Liverpool, it's a great team, but if we don't put the VAR in the Champions League, then we will continue to live in such funny situations, "James Palota said after the rematch with Liverpool.

Did they both go crazy all of a sudden? No. It's just too late. And once they're late, they'll have to hurry up and do what they can to ensure that the VAR enters European competitions immediately and that Pierluigi Colina has no say in football. A rather overrated former referee, who has managed to become even worse as chief referee of the European federation.

The story of "Kotzak", as the Italians called him because of his skull, began in 1988 with his first steps as a referee in Serie C2 and quickly rose to the rankings to reach Serie A in 1991. From 1995 he became international starting whistling in UEFA and FIFA matches, which soon led to him being named the world's top referee. The "why" remains unknown, as refereeing errors in the matches he whistled were never lacking. Of course, if you want to see the issue more comprehensively, it also has to focus on who recognized Kolina as the best of all. Because to consider you a top player, and therefore a referee of absolute confidence, the FIFA of Joao Havelanze and then of Sepp Blatter, is probably not the best. For Havelanze, what to write first, for Blatter, what for the judges to judge first with what was revealed years later.

As for UEFA, it has always taken care of him as a monument in terms of refereeing, since he managed to pass to the press and consequently to the "logic" of all, that Colina is the top referee of all time! The UEFA of Michel Platini and his associates, the European federation which, especially since the French presidency took over in 2006, has made the biggest falsification of football history with titles that always end up in specific teams or countries, with individual titles that have been shared and continue to be shared with specific players, at the same time that everyone else is amazed by what they see being whistled or decided. As they convinced - by constantly rewarding and rewarding themselves and the world - that these teams have always been the best for years or that these players have been the best for years, so they are convinced that Kolina is the right person to direct European refereeing with his aura and knowledge. We all remember, logically, how Platini - after Blatter - ended football.

Pierluigi could have been involved in scandals, of course, but somehow he always managed to save her. In the summer of 2006, for example, when hundreds of Calcio phone calls came to light, there were several starring Colina. Anyone (we can quote the conversations as they are but it doesn't make sense) could read or hear the alleged top referee in the world explain to Leandro Meani, the then right-hand man of Adriano Galliani in Milan in matters of refereeing, because he didn't give a penalty to Jambrotta's marking at Kafu in that Milan-Juventus 0-1 of 2005 or how he avoided dismissing Nesta from the first 20 minutes because it was too early… From the world's top referee, you probably don't expect such mistakes or such discussions. Discussions in which he stressed to his interlocutor that he did not want to damage relations with Galliani, while at the same time analyzing his plans for his future as chief arbitrator. Inside or outside Italy.

Kotzak, after all, has always been good at this. To have a good relationship with the strong (with the exception of Luciano Moggi, as evidenced by Lucky Luciano's phone conversations), to be able to do things that were not allowed to any other referee. Can any referee remember to advertise for large giant companies? No one ever. Colina, however, did. He signed a contract with Opel, threatening to retire when he was told he could not do so, especially since Serie A teams had a sponsorship deal with Opel, while in Calciopoli he was never involved. Let everyone guess why. When the hard times came, after all, he decided to leave the whistle and advertise for other possible companies, with the official explanation being that his presentation, this physiognomy that easily remained in everyone's memory, was all that was needed.

Having a good time with everyone, even on the cover of Pro Evolution Soccer or having a special honorary position at FIFA 2005, Colina knew that she would always be close to football, even when she ended her career. During which, incidentally, he whistled in a World Cup final, the one between Brazil and Germany in 2002, when he refused for some reason to show a red card to Kafu who went with the plugs of both of his shoes to an opponent. From the top referee in the world, to the top match of the year or 4 years, you don't expect such a big mistake. Pierluigi, however, was never as good as he was on the pitch. Anyone who watched his matches could understand that. What no Italian could have imagined then was that the time would come when, as a "guru" of European refereeing, he would infuriate all (and not exaggerate) the Italian teams that have taken part in European competitions in recent years.

The examples are many (in Barcelona-Milan we have seen a penalty kick against Nesta before the corner is even executed!) And at the pace we go, if nothing changes, they will be countless. If one looks at the Roma-Real Madrid of the 2015-16 season, they will see that no penalty was given to overturn Florence and no red cards have been given to Carvahal and Navas. Anyone who has seen - in the same season always - Napoli-Villarreal, will see that Bruno Soriano is not handed a penalty. Anyone who looks at Lazio-Galatasaray will see that two penalties are not given, one in the overthrow of Matri by Mussler and one in Olsan's hand. Anyone looking at Fiorentina-Tottenham will see a non-existent penalty in favor of Davis, who then, having already a yellow card, sees no direct red but not even a second foul on Zarate. Anyone looking at Bayern Munich-Juventus will see the cancellation of a Murata goal that, as technology has shown, only 90 centimeters. Now, two years later, it is clear that the aim was not to favor the Germans, but to justify the Italians. This season, 2015-16, is pivotal because it was then that Italy had come close to England and threatened to take 4 to the Champions League.

Such an issue does not exist now, after the changes made by UEFA, but the mistakes continue. Coincidentally, it's all against the Italians and all in favor of their opponents, especially if they are primarily Spanish and then English. In the rematch of Tottenham-Juventus, the referee, the assistant (supervisor) and especially the line assistant managed not to see the clear penalty in Douglas Costa, as they did not see Kane in the 90 'to be a offside measure, having a beam in the phase he will could send the match to extra time. As for the sequel with Real at the Santiago Bernabeu, they don't need much. Buffon said that the English referee has rubbish bins instead of hearts. If he lied, why doesn't UEFA punish him? Gigi, after all, has not officially said he will stop. In Arsenal-Milan the whole world was speechless watching the penalty given in favor of Welbeck, in Roma-Liverpool we saw a hand style Roberto Carlos (once) not to be punished with a penalty and red, in Lazio Chicago-Leden-Salzburg I saw to be on the rails with what they saw in the first match.

Making refereeing mistakes, of course, is part of the program. And when it comes down to it, it's hard to open a discussion about refereeing, because you just don't want to get the point there, but to stand up for football. But in which football? Mr Blatter once in 2006 became FIFA's first president in football history, not relegated to the World Cup because he felt disgusted with Calciopoli. Calciopoli, 12 years later, seems and is a funny topic in the face of the refereeing mistakes that we see being made in favor of specific and specific, in events that launch you in all respects (financial, prestige, marketing, attracting new fans). Really funny topic. However, this may be the punishment of the Italians, who boasted in 2006 because they destroyed their championship and adored Colina, keeping him out of this "scandal". Now that we are in 2018, judging by the reactions of their teams, it is probably in the phase of "my strong knowledge that I had you first".

And they will continue to be in such a phase, even if they do not like it, if they do not impose the change of chief referee and the entry of VAR in European competitions. True, Colina was in favor of Italy and Germany becoming experimental animals this year, using technology in their leagues. Why doesn't he dare to do the same in Europe? Because the theoretically top referees and the theoretically top footballers, coaches or teams will be decapitated in an impressive - and at the same time enjoyable - way, is the answer. And together with those who have been rewarding them for so many years.
