Tottenham Hotspur 0 - 1 Real Madrid
Champions League 2010-2011 1/4 finals · 2011-04-13 Referee: Nicola Rizzoli

Another Good Italian Referee

Penalties

Tottenham had 4 appeals for a penalty and in my opinion the referee dealt with all of them perfectly. None of them were penalties and the referee should have booked Bale for the first dive to send the message: "Just because I'm Italian, doesn't mean I'll fall for all of your dives."

everything

Rizzoli's overall performance was good and no one can have any complaints about him influencing the result with his calls (or non-calls). Well Done!

Be Proud Spurs

One of the best matches in the Champions League mostly because of the good speed both teams had. Yes, Ronaldo's goal was very lucky and Tottenham finally lost at home in the Champions League but Spurs fans should be proud of their team for their brilliant performances.
