| Barcelona | - | Chelsea F.C. |
Player 1 fouls on player 2, Stark waves it off. Then player 3 fouls on player 4 because he is angry at player 1. It's a bad foul but since he already has been shown a card, Stark doesn't book him again. Apparently already having been booked gives you some freedom to act. Both Alex and Pujol got away with it.
a foul is a foul
And a bookable foul is a bookable foul, but apparently some bookable fouls are a little less so. Stark just doesn't follow the rules, and the players had no idea what was allowed and what wasn't and almost everone looked irritated except players like Ballack who thrive in matches like these.
wrong
That was a penalty for pulling Henry, Herr Stark. But I guess you just missed it and so did your assistants who missed a lot.
And that was a very bad foul when Alex knocked Henry down with his shoulder. No way that was an accident.
match
It became clear after 15 minutes that Barcelona wasn't going to get through the wall of Chelsea defenders. Chelsea didn't really play, they just stopped Barcelona and they did it well. But it was Wolfang Stark who ruined the match.
