Referee Glenn Nyberg delivered an impeccable performance in last night’s Champions League showdown between Royale Union SG and Inter Milan.
According to Gazzetta dello Sport via FCInterNews, the Swedish referee managed the game flawlessly, making all key decision with authority.
Despite a slow start, Inter Milan registered a commanding 4-0 victory at Lotto Park.
Indeed, Cristian Chivu preserved his 100% managerial record in the Champions League with another thumping win.
Furthermore, highly rated youngster Francesco Pio Esposito netted his first goal in the competition.
Referee Glenn Nyberg Impeccable in Royale Union SG 0-4 Inter Milan
Denzel Dumfries opened the scoring in the 41st minute after Yann Bisseck outjumped his marker inside Royale Union’s box.
Though the home players appealed for a potential handball, there was no reason for Nyberg to disallow the goal.
Indeed, the ball struck Bisseck’s arm only after he headed it down, making it an entirely involuntary play.
Meanwhile, the 37-year-old awarded a penalty to Inter early in the second half after receiving a call from the VAR booth.
Again, the decision was spot on as Kevin Mac Allister handled the ball in an attempt to block Lautaro Martinez’s header.
