Where are the cards in Colombia?

Strombergsson..

A few of us constituted that Strombergsson was the most surprising name from UEFA zone even though he officiated at UEFA U21 Euro in Denmark a few weeks ago. His career start was not that great, he had some weak perfomances in the Euro 2012 qualifiers and especially in Euro League. In Denmark, he showed us that he is capable to adapt the course of the match, i.e. that he adapts his style to the match. He is a calm referee but when the match is intense and even unfair, he is capable to leave this way. A skill which not every referee has, even CL final referees are not capable of that...

Calls

An easy-going match with no bigger situations. That's why I spent more time with drivel..both cards were absolutely ok, offside decisions rare but always correctly seen. When it was possible, he let the play go on. He did everything correctly, but it is no 8 in calls when taking the match difficulty of this match into consideration.
