Third Croatian referee in Champions League (by ***)

Strahonja

Not too difficult a match for Strahonja. He had no problems with control, players were correct during all 90 minutes, no one complained about his decisions. Foul detection was very good, advantage rule also great. Two yellow cards: in 16th Costin played dangerous with his hands, no intention but dangerous. In 36th minute for Evans careless foul. Always close to the ball, he saw everything he needed to see.

Premuzaj and Novosel

Sinisa Premuzaj and Zeljko Novosel are great assistants, they showed it yesterday. All off-side situations were correct, especially difficult situations in 45th for Premuzaj and 48th for Novosel. In 38th minute Premuzaj correctly signaled a handball against Manchester near the Otelul penalty box. All in all a very good performance by Premuzaj and Novosel.
