The President of the Italiqn referee association Marcello Nicchi was a guest late last night on RAI show Domenica Sportiva discussing the recent controversy regarding Nicola Rizzoli.
Speaking about the challenge on D’Ambrosio by Lichtsteiner Nicchi stated: “If you can find anyone to give you a penalty for that, I say keep him. Chiellini’s backpass? Rizzoli says that the ball was moved twice, these are statements which I have to trust. The overreaching evaluation is made by Domenico Messina who is the observer and everything is then examined at Coverciano. We don’t underestomate anything. Today we have to say two things: we are speaking about a world class referee, who is respected as a referee and as a person because he gives a lot to the Association as well as showing solidarity. Then the time has arrived to say enough with the discussions which doesn’t help anyone, a beautiful match has been forgotten. Now all parties need to put this behind them which has made everyone forget a great match. Football is made up of different episodes, now we get back to normality. I will do my part, calling on everyone do give their all because the league goes into a decisive period.”

i wonder..what is in collina’s mind about this Rizzoli shit
you trust his statements over video because it saves ya ass. Dont shit on a plate and call it cake.
Rizoli n ansaldi, i amaze how easy we put world class label to someone.
well rizzoli reputation has been damaged badly idk how much left in him at this career but i think no more big final for this referee after juve-inter yeah thats what happen you mess with inter bitchh
this is why i never like AIA.if your employer make mistake say it and punish him for his mistake dont make excuse like this. maybe pierluigi collina should comeback again.
“a beautiful match has been forgotten”
Interesting! So he believes that referee made a mess of things and that viewers all over the world reacted to it. He is trying to defend indefensible with words yet he rested Rizzoli for one week. Double standard!
When the ass meets the shits! RUBE MERDA AND CO!
this is an apple to apple with a statement if trump is a saint
Yeah he is worldclass just like someone said ansaldi is worldclass.. Just “joking”
“Rizzoli is a world class referee” ————-
I absolutely agree.
those like him brought titles to juve, one must be “champion class”
to make juve.champions.
The ball was on the right place and all still when Alex Sandro started the play and Chillini wasn’t observing and gave a bad pass… There wasn’t any protests or cards so the could play the ball when ever they wanted so there wasn’t a single thing Rizzoli could blow for! And for that judgement I can say the ball was moving a lot when Chillini started the play for the second time!
Bullshit. It an association of corruption it’s totally based on corruption.
