Manchester United 3 - 3 Basel
Champions League 2011-2012 group stage · 2011-09-27 Referee: Paolo Tagliavento

Another good Italian referee

Penalty

Tagliavento called a penalty with ten minutes to go and he got no complaints from anyone especially Antonio Valencia who had committed the foul.

Cards

The two yellows he gave were correct and probably nothing else deserved a card.

English fouls

European referees are always criticized by English clubs and players for calling fouls that are too soft but Tagliavento did very well by letting things go and not being whistle happy.

Overall

Very solid performance but I think he did miss a foul on Park in the second half which was probably of bad positioning or being blocked by another player.
