The one who went the referee commissioned of pitar the meeting of turn of quarter-finals of UEFA Champions League between FC Barcelona and Athletic of Madrid, Nicola Rizzoli, has conceded some statements in which it has praised the professionalism and "Fair-Play" of the players and directors of the Barça just after the party.
And it is that the big majority of members of the Barcelona expedition attended to greet him after the party and did not reproach him at all, although, as it recognises the same Rizzoli, no pitó a penalti by hand of Gabi Fernández during the final minutes, that in direct saw out of the area.
"The players of the FC Barcelona and his leaders came to the changing room to congratulate us. Any protest.'They have deserved to happen they, went his comment. To this calls him sportive culture. In Italy do not know what is", has explained Rizzoli in statements collected by "The Gazzetta Dello Sport".
In this sense remains clear that after the party, and in spite of the played controversial that prejudiced clearly the interests of the FC Barcelona in the eliminatory of quarter-finals of Champions League, the players blaugrana did not blame to the referee of the sucedido, neither much less, but they were able to do self-criticism and recognise his own errors.
