too soon for me

It’s reported UEFA have taken referee Manuel Grafe off big games after his poor performance in Real Madrid-Juventus.

The official caused controversy on Wednesday night during Juve’s 2-1 Champions League defeat at the Bernabeu.

He showed Giorgio Chiellini a straight red card for his shoulder-to-shoulder with Cristiano Ronaldo, either considering it to be an elbow in the face or ending a clear scoring opportunity.

According to Tuttosport, the UEFA refereeing commission gave Grafe a very poor score when evaluating his performance.

“It means Grafe is not considered suitable to officiate games of importance, such as Real-Juve,” ex-international referee Graziano Cesari told Tuttosport.

“There is no protocol for a suspension, but it’s pretty certain we won’t see him in the Champions League knockout rounds. Even in the group phase, the games he is assigned to will be of a minor level.”

This season alone the 40-year-old has officiated 11 games in all competition, flashing six yellow cards, five red and awarding five penalties.

Last term in 31 games he sent off 15 players and gave 144 bookings.

Not like it matters at all, UEFA should have selected a competent referee for such an important match.

Tried the same dive against Masch, but what an unexpected move of referee in Spain not to fall to it.  

Really unusual for Ronaldive to not get a penalty there. Reff decided he wanted to take distance from the previous error by the german reff in CL?

Also, Ramos should have gotten a red for elbowing Neymar according to pussy-reffing.

If ronaldo got this penalty wouldn't it be his 4th straight?
Penaldo, Divenaldo back to his prime :')

loool, was so funny to see his pathetic cry after that how can such a "big" player be so disgusting is a mystery... Have some class ffs!

ya, how dare ronaldo react to being brought down in the box which likely would have resulted in an equalizing goal.

how dare he.

anyone denying cr pen today is straight up blind, masch ran directly into cr never attempted to even play the ball just like chiellini

Lool, he looks like in the middle of an exorcisation process

I could say the same about Fabs penalty.

Now I think about it, watching that gif over and over again Ronaldo does indeed nudge into Mascherano then fall onto the ground.
I'm still going to say a penalty so its so hard to tell.
The fact is that Ronaldo is a diving scum and like Neymar if you have that kind of reputation, its going to be hard to get decisions especially after Juventus game where he flopped on the ground and started crying like hell like his penis came off or something... ffs

For a second Cronaldo must have felt like a Superman right there. But oh boy, did that change fast afterwards.  

I always felt that RM fans crying about ref decision is a product of despicable club policy and I am finally convinced about that. Imagine this headline in the clubs official page after games against Juve and Elche (to name just few recent ones).

Really RM? This low?

ya it REALLY seems like RM fans are the ones crying when almost all the posts are obsessed barca fans continuing to moan even though they won.

get a hobby.

Loooooooooool on the website LMFAO

Referee blatantly biased in favor of Barca; Barca fans cry for days anyway. Dafuq?

You're deluded mate. Referee wasn't blatantly biased to Barca at all. Should have given a red card to Carjaval for his dangerous elbow slash at Neymar as well as given Ramos a second yellow card, plus you're denying Cesc's penalty claim that was as clearer as Ronaldo's...
