South American fitness debacle in Rio de Janeiro seminar

FIFA's Refereeing Officer Massimo Busacca probably could not believe what he had to notice in yesterday's fitness tests having been a crucial part of this week's seminar for pre-selected referees in Rio de Janeiro. On their road to next year's World Cup, a total number of eight out of ten pre-selected South Americans as well as one standby referee from Brazil (Heber Lopes) have failed the tests.

At least nine of them failed the yo-yo-tests (c) FIFA.com

According to the news provided by Árbitro Internacional, Diego Abal (ARG), Antonio Arias (PAR), Víctor Carrillo (PER), Heber Lopes (BRA), Raul Orosco (BOL), Juan Soto (VEN), Martin Vazquez (URU) and Carlos Vera (ECU) have failed the yo-yo-test. Additionally Brazilian Sandro Ricci suffered from an injury during the test and therefore failed it as well.

Only Enrique Osses (CHI), Néstor Pitana (ARG) and Wilmar Roldán (COL) have passed it. 

It is only another episode of failed fitness tests in South American refereeing. Before Lopes and Ricci, Brazilian officials Wilson Seneme and Leandro Vuaden had already failed to be physically ready for next year's World Cup to be hosted in their nation. Furthermore, Roberto Silvera (URU) was removed from the prospective list due to injuries, too.

In the end it is unclear how FIFA is going to deal with these circumstances. In fact, all the referees who were originally planned for June's Under-20 World Cup have failed the test. Thus it is quite probable that they get a second chance to repeat the tests.

"The players helped me to fade from the spotlight", Rizzoli tells Gazzetta dello Sport

After his presence in 2013 UEFA Champions League final, Italian official Nicola Rizzoli spoke with Italy's biggest sports newspaper, Gazzetta dello Sport, about his emotions and impressions collected at Wembley Stadium.

Nicola Rizzoli urging Mario Mandzukic (c) wa.de

Gazzetta: Tell us about your feelings during the match.

Rizzoli: There was a quite calm atmosphere. The players were really fair and they helped me to fade from the spotlight, I whistled only 17 fouls. After the final whistle, I cried, I was sure of having shown a good performance on the pitch, but I was waiting for Pierluigi Collina’s words. He came in my room and after a few seconds of silence, he said: “Good, Nicola, you were good along with your whole team. Now it’s time to celebrate and enjoy. You deserve that.“

Gazzetta: You have frequently given advantages.

Rizzoli: Stopping an action is often a pity: football is nice especially when it’s fluent, without interruptions. A referee has not always this chance, but in this match I noticed that it was possible.

Gazzetta: In serie A, it’s different.

Rizzoli: It’s a problem of culture. When our teams play in UEFA competitions, they also change their styles, focusing on the respect for the opponent. A player knows that a red card might mean several matches of ban, so he is careful. There aren’t exaggerated complaints. Everything is easy.

Gazzetta: Hearing your words, it seems that a CL final is easier than a serie A match.

Rizzoli: Yes, it’s true. Of course, we can’t compare the importance and the pressure of this final with other matches, nevertheless in serie A from a technical point of view, I have more difficulties.

Gazzetta: Other memories from “your” Wembley final?

Rizzoli: At the end of the game, Robben talked to me, saying: “You deserved this final, and you were really good.” I’m quite able to play football but sometimes I envy those players, they are really champions. Robben, Schweinsteiger and Reus were my favourite players in this final.

Gazzetta: The most difficult decision of the match?

Rizzoli: Penalty to Borussia Dortmund, even though it can appear clear on TV, it wasn’t. I had not a free view on the pitch, Reus was obstructing me. I was able to understand the situation also thanks to my experience.

Gazzetta: Klopp asked for a second YC to Dante.

Rizzoli: To be honest, he congratulated me. Anyway, I understand that we can discuss about this situation. It appeared to me as an unintentional foul. It was a negligence by Dante, and according to rules, this is not a YC. You must give the second YC only when you are really sure. Some people say that when you whistle a penalty, the card must be mandatory. Stupid and false sentence. Furthermore, the action didn’t appear to me as potentially important for Borussia Dortmund.

Gazzetta: What about the situation between Ribery and Lewandowski in the first half?

Rizzoli: Yes, I might have booked them, but in those cases the referees must calm down the players, not exasperating them. It’s a better choice. They immediately had a clarification and nothing happened. In second half it was different, therefore I booked Ribery and Großkreutz.

Gazzetta: The first goal scored by Bayern is an excellent call due to a very difficult onside position.

Rizzoli: Yes, thank to this man here close to me (Faverani).

Faverani: I have to admit that I was lucky. I was focused on Mandzukic, he was in an offside position. Ribery decided to pass the ball to Robben, at first he also appeared to be offside to me, but I waited because I evaluated the speed of the action, and I thought that he was in a regular position. And that was correct, I decided by intuition.

Gazzetta: Your next goals?

Rizzoli: 200 matches in serie A, and Brazil 2014.

Gazzetta: You are going to fly to Rio de Janeiro with Rocchi.

Rizzoli: Yes, we have a FIFA meeting on the road to WC 2014.

Gazzetta: A lot of time has passed since your first match as referee.

Rizzoli: Yes, and I would like to meet again a man who 25 years ago said to me: “You can’t referee, you are not able to do that. I know important people in our association (AIA). I will make you stop refereeing.”

Mixed echo after Rizzoli's final performance

When Nicola Rizzoli blew the final whistle after 94 minutes of high-quality football played by triumphant Bayern München as well as unlucky Borussia Dortmund, all the tension that had pressed on the Italian referee's shoulders immediately declined. The 41 year-old architect of Mirandola furthermore admitted that he had been moved to tears as even Dortmund's fans applauded for the Italian officiating crew. Even Pierluigi Collina seemed delighted having come to their dressing room after the match. But, was really everything that rosy?

Rizzoli himself was content with the decisions he had taken, at least according to an interview he gave to an Italian newspaper that will appear tomorrow on this blog as a copy, too. 

As pointed out in the two unofficial referee observer's reports you can find on the right hand-side of this blog, there have been several game-relevant incidents and, from our point of view, the referee failed to issue at least two sending-offs. Among others, Franck Ribery, who was directly involved in both Bayern goals, should have been red-carded after a violent punch into Robert Lewandowski's face in the midst of the first half.

Without any doubt, the match seemed to be under control. Football savoured the absolute focus and surely, there has been rarely such an open-minded and tense final in recent history. But does the end justify the means? Is a match fair and well-controlled by the referee as soon as 22 players, 11 vs. 11, are combatting for the win on the pitch? Even if one or two of them qualify for being sent off? I doubt that. Yes the match would have suffered from an early red card to the Frenchman. And yes, you can superficially call the missed but actually mandatory yellow card to Dante, which would have meant his expulsion, kind of "match feeling". However neutral observers should not be interested in such thoughts. The Laws of the Game also count in a final of the most popular football league of the world. Violent conducts are red. No matter when, where and against whom the card might go. Specially Pierluigi Collina should know that best.

Finally, a short overview on the "third half" of the match: Rizzoli's performance attracted a mixed medial echo in the aftermath of the match.

Markus Merk, former top referee, was one of many who had their say on Rizzoli's performance:

"Yellow for both would have been mandatory, red for Ribery possible.", referring to the Ribery vs. Lewandowski incident.

Two times World Cup referee Graham Poll was more critical:

"The game was a superbly entertaining encounter, one of the best finals at the new Wembley and therein lies the problem: the perspective that it is better to watch 22 players contesting a game than 11 v 10 or even 11 v 9. This leads to referees being guided to ‘keep 22 players on the pitch’, particularly in a showpiece final. [...] 

Ribery, trying to shrug off his opponent, threw his arm back into him, clearly striking Lewandowski in the face. It was as clear a red-card offence as you will see — and in full view of Rizzoli. Incredibly, the Italian referee did not even caution the Frenchman. Had it not been the final, I would expect UEFA to charge Ribery retrospectively. [...] 

We would all rather be talking about the absorbing match rather than referee errors but if a competition is going to be affected by what UEFA call ‘brutality’, as it was when Nani was dismissed at Old Trafford, then it should be done consistently — even if it affects the final.", these are the words of a referee, who himself needed three yellow cards to finally send off a Croatian player at World Cup 2006, who mostly heralds quite exclusive point of views in his column, but who - this time - hits the nail right on the head (source).

Borussia Dortmund manager Klopp reacted shortly after the game:

"I saw it in the game and I was sure you can give a second yellow card and when I saw it on television I thought you had to give it. But in the history of football there were refereeing decisions worse than this. 11 against 10 after that we are the winner? I don't know.", Klopp stated with regard to Dante's foul leading to the penalty. Words, which should close the chapter "Refereeing in CL final 2013" in a conciliatory manner.

Deliberate Handball - THE Grey Area

In defiance of all those topics football’s lawmakers of the International Football Association Board (IFAB) have recently put on the agenda of things to be urgently discussed – mostly for political reasons –, the probably most apparent controversy is still remaining untouched: the question of what the term “deliberate handball” means at all.

Handball yes - but also deliberate, chargeable handball? (c) focus

In the past, many examples have shown that there has been no real consistency and uniformity in terms of handball and its assessment in situations occurring in the penalty area. That’s because the Laws of the Game define a package of criteria that must be applied when assessing these situations, e.g. the hand position, the hand movement or the distance between the shot ball and the player’s hand. Parts of this criteria can be fulfilled, while other parts of them can work in opposite direction. A process of weighing up has to be induced, which is similar to almost every tough decision you face in life. The problem: referees have no respite, they have to take these decisions based on their weighing up in a self-confident and convinced manner after mostly very little seconds, if at all.

Handball situations are not “black-and-white”, they require a profound and individual assessment, they depend on the referee’s feeling and grasp for the game. In the interest of football and its players, it is merely good that not every contact between hand and ball must be penalized – contrary to other kinds of sports. Though it must be achieved that teams, players and even supporters can comprehend the referee’s decision and that they do not perceive them as pure arbitrariness. In the same league, in the same competition and within the same federation, predictable and reliable decisions must be taken with regard to handball. It is happening too often that quite similar handballs are ruled as an infringement and entail a penalty kick in the one match, while another referee is waiving play-on in another match at another venue. National federations and, above all, UEFA and FIFA must ensure uniform instructions and an improved coaching of their referees by analyzing more material like video-footage to create a harmonious feeling for what handball is really deliberate, intentional and therefore chargeable among their officials, who are otherwise left out in the rain.

Solely simpliying this rule will undermine the foresight and prudence that are aspired by the differentiated assessment of in-box handball situations. In this specific case (and contrary to other cases), more uniform instructions for referees seem to be the best solution. And, what is even more relevant, dear lawmakers and federations: explain your instructions to the referees, teams, players and supporters to gain more comprehension and approval.

Besides that, it is good that those grey areas linger on – if they did not, what would we discuss about?

Prideful Rizzoli thrilled by Wembley duty

Nicola Rizzoli will be unable to repeat his usual mantra ahead of Saturday's game between FC Bayern München and Borussia Dortmund. "Approach it as if it were the final of the UEFA Champions League," the Italian referee always says to himself before a match. This time, however, he really will be handling the top club fixture in world football.

Nicola Rizzoli awaiting kick-off at Wembley (c) UEFA

The 41-year-old architect from Bologna is no stranger to the big occasion: he officiated at the inaugural UEFA Europa League final in 2010, an experience that he believes will help him at Wembley. "Absolutely, yes," he told UEFA.com. "Finals are always special."

UEFA.com: How does it feel to have been selected for such a prestigious match?

Nicola Rizzoli: I feel very proud, I am proud of what we have done and achieved on this long road to the final. It's the most important match at European level, and if I look back at the 24 years of my refereeing career, it's unbelievable to have made it to this point now.

UEFA.com: How do you prepare mentally for such an occasion?

Rizzoli: The same preparation applies for all matches, basically. I have always said, in all the matches I have refereed, even at youth level, that I have to approach it as if it were the final of the Champions League. And this coming Saturday I really will referee the Champions League final. It's motivation for me to prepare even better mentally.

UEFA.com: Can your experience of refereeing the 2010 UEFA Europa League final help at Wembley?

Rizzoli: Absolutely, yes. Finals are always special matches – they are not like other games, although they should be – but the experience you gain in a match like that helps you a lot, to understand how to handle the special tensions that are normal in a final.

UEFA.com: What will you do in order for you and your team to enjoy the experience?

Rizzoli: Trying to enjoy it is not always easy – concentrating makes you so careful about details, which can help you better evaluate certain situations, that you lose the real context. From when we come out of the tunnel until the moment we start the match, we must enjoy the spectacle and the event. We must look at the spectators, fans and supporters, all the beautiful things that football offers, and all the passion you can feel, because I'm sure that during the match we will be so focused and mindful of what is happening on the pitch.

UEFA.com: Two German teams are in the final. Have you talked about this to any of your German colleagues?

Rizzoli: Getting information is the most important thing when preparing for a match like this. I had already spoken to some German colleagues before it was known who would be refereeing the final, because I like to get information when I meet other officials. Of course, today we are lucky to be able to get all the information we want off the internet, so the teams have been studied and analysed.

UEFA.com: How important is it to know how the teams play tactically?

Rizzoli: It's fundamental, because it's the only way not to be taken by surprise. Knowing beforehand what could happen and having that information can help you anticipate certain situations. If you are taken by surprise in a situation then it can become difficult to judge in a correct way.

UEFA.com: What kind of match do you expect?

Rizzoli: It will be a game between two excellent teams who are both very physical, but at the same time involving coaches who make their sides play tactically very well. They each have coaches who know how to get the best out of their players, so I expect them to all play at the highest level, which will create a great spectacle.

UEFA.com: Does the fact it is at Wembley make the final more special?

Rizzoli: Wembley represents the history of football, even if it has been rebuilt and restructured. You breathe the history and the passion, just pure football. That is what I hope to feel when I'm in the dressing room and when we come out of the tunnel.

UEFA.com: And lastly, how would you like to be remembered after the final?

Rizzoli: I don't really want to be remembered. I hope they will just remember me when they read the name of the match referee. The stars are – and should be – the players. Don't remember me, that is better.

52 Referees invited to Rio de Janeiro seminar

FIFA Refereeing Department headed by Massimo Busacca has invited 52 referees to meet in Rio de Janeiro from 25 to 31 May 2013 at a seminar - among them, there are 50 pre-selected match officials.

"Pre-selected" means that these officials are considered to attend 2014 FIFA World Cup. Two of them, Ali Al Badwawi of UA Emirates will miss the meeting due to injury. At the same time, Argentina's Néstor Pitana and Brazilian official Heber Lopes have been invited, too, despite not being on the prospective list for the World Cup. Khalil Al Ghamdi of Saudi Arabia, who is actually on the pre-list as well, is absent for other reasons.

The seminar comprises basic instructions in terms of the technical application of the laws of the game, briefings and fitness programmes.
