Mark Clattemburg surprised this past Thursday at night with some reveladoras statements for the podcast 'Brazilian Shirt Name' on the final of the Champions of 2016. Real Madrid and Athletic of Madrid played the title in Milan with the English referee to the controls. Five years afterwards, the trencilla recognised openly his errors and even vanaglorió to have them committed, something that is outraging to a lot of fans.

To start with, the British explained how lived the offside goal of Sergio Bouquets for the 1-0 that did not have to go up to the marker. "When the balloon arrived to the area from the kickoff of fault I knew that it Bleat had touched it in the half (had combed it), what facilitated that it marked Bouquets. And I asked him shouting to the assistant, what was difficult by the noise, if it knew if there had been a touch after the kickoff of fault. You know if they have touched it? You know if they have touched it?", it explained.

To continuation, explained what happened with his linesman and how finish deciding give validity to the so much because his assistant had remained paralysed. "And I saw him looking the videomarcador and shouted him 'Can reiniciar the party? You have seen the touch of Bleat? And my assistant was entirely frozen…Like a minute later reinicié the party because it had to do it, did not have a technology as now", stood out.

It seems that the linesman excusó saying that his micro did not work, although Clattenburg insinuates that all was fault of the nerves. "To the while recover the communication and said him 'Simon, Have seen the offside or was very just? And it said me that neither the headphones neither the microphone had worked him to warn me. And I thought, go, now work and ten seconds ago no... He had one of these moments in the life in which you are really garbled. When I think it now it was a very difficult decision, but would have liked me that my assistant had said me something…", aimed.

Here it was where they began the truly grave statements of the referee, that admitted without pelos in the tongue have pitado a penalti in favour of the Athletic to compensate his previous error. "I was very lucky in this final. Two or three minutes after the rest presented me a penalti of those that are 50/50. Torres was clearly advanced in front of Pepe, very clearly and there was lacking. Really it was lacking? Very subjective… And it pité because it gave back the balance, since the Madrid had his opportunity with the offside goal. It was one of these perfect stages for the arbitration", said.

Also it explained how it was his conversation with Pepe when it protested the action and finally jactó of everything. "It comes Pepe and says me that it has not been penalti, say him that it neither had been legal the goal with which had advanced and went . I thought, guau, is my day, is a perfect day for a referee. The Athletic had the occasion of empatar the offside goal and failed, now can not me blame to me. They can not because Griezmann could empatar and did not do it", concluded.
