Description of the game

My view of Dr. Jan Valasek accomplishment

When it comes to running style and whistle use, my initial thought was "a copy of Michel Lubos". But still, just a copy, and NOT A VERY GOOD ONE, I might add. In order for me to depict what I have written on the paper, what is good and what is not good, I would need much more space to express myself. Indeed, this game has shown all the disadvantages of the inexperienced Slovak. In a nutshell, he did not have a uniform criterion while applying the Laws 12, 13 and 14: these criteria had many oscillations. Many small mistakes in the evaluation of fouls, inconsistency in applying disciplinary measures and failing to award a penalty kick for the home team in the 4th minute of the first extension give me the right to say that Dr. Valasek has disappointed us by his "philosophy" of refereeing. He had failed to let the game develop and had stopped it many times by putting himself ahead of the game and rising an already high temperature at the end. Each extension of the game had lasted for too long?! I am not questioning his NEUTRALITY in any way, but am simply of the opinion that his mistakes are the consequence of his inexperience and lack of readiness for such matches. I witnessed all the items in the Law 12: pushing, pulling the dress in penalty area; and everything was left at just a warning even after repeated attempts. In addition, Law 8 - the beginning and restarting the game - . There was too much dissipation of time, with no yellow cards awarded.

Some of the examples

Textbook example: While the Partizan player was performing a throw-in, another ball was thrown into the field. The throw-in was played, the ball was in play. The referee stops the game, and after removing the second ball from the feild, he retruns the ball to the Partizan. He should have performed a drop ball!!! In the so-called extra-time, the referee lost control of the game. First, after an uncontrolled start by the guest goalkeeper Thomson, he does not whistle a penalty kick for the home team after a foul over Lazar Markovic in the 4th minute of the first extension, and in my opinion he had every reason to. Second, he justly awarded a penalty kick for the guest team and justly showed a yellow card. Third, if the referee had shown at least a yellow card to Medo Kamara after his second ruthless start over a guest player - and there were even elements of extreme force to justify a direct red card - it would, I am sure, prevent yet another brutal start of Kamara and a possible injury of the guest player; but referee Valasek lacked courage to award it. In my opinion, Kamara deserved at least 5 matches suspension for his last start, and a direct red card for his type of start was completely justified. If Dr. Valesek did not realize where he made mistakes, he is on the wrong track. I am taught, maybe wrongly, that after every interruption of longer duration (injury, entering a substitute player in play, conflict on the filed), the referee whistles the sign to restart the game. Arbiter is from Slovakia, and had never once done so. The assistant referees were also insecure, but this is already too much on this match.
