Referee Has A Dust Bin Instead Of A Heart- Buffon Goes Into Rage Fueled Rant After Champions League Defeat

2 Min Read

Gianluigi Buffon has stood by his reaction to referee Michael Oliver’s decision to award Real Madrid a penalty in the very last minute of the game and give Buffon his marching orders after the legendary Goalkeeper reacted.

The Bianconeri had scored three goals against their more illustrious opponents to level the scores on aggregate and were on course to take the game to extra time and possibly penalties.

But, things changed rather quickly when a knockdown from Ronaldo found Vasquez who seemed to be barged in the back by Benatia and Michael Oliver pointed to the spot.

Ronaldo dispatched it and Real Madrid were through.

“A quality referee does not destroy the dream of a team that has put everything on the field for 90 minutes,” stated the angry goalkeeper to Mediaset Premium

“He wanted to play the part of the protagonist.

“A human being cannot whistle for an incident so doubtful after a game like that, unless you have a garbage bin instead of a heart. If you do not have personality, you should be in the stands eating chips with your family. This referee did not have the courage or the personality for this level.

“I could’ve told the referee anything at that moment, but he had to understand the degree of the disaster he was creating. If you can’t handle the pressure and have the courage to make a decision, then you should just sit in the stands and eat your crisps.

“If you don’t have the personality needed for certain levels, it’s better to watch the game in the stand with your wife, maybe eating chips. It’s a question of the kind of sensitivity that every man must have, knowing whether to officiate or not. It means not knowing where you are, what teams are playing. In practice, it means you don’t know shit.”
