Of course Ballack was angry after that handball , as it was the FOURTH penalty appeal turned down.I thought he was going to clobber the ref.
If it was a Cypriot team,there would have been a manslaughter charge :-)
The sending off was diabolical, Anelka DID trip himself but again, the referee gave the decision. The linesman and fourth official were playing the 3 monkeys,see,hear and speak no evil.
The whole event was suspect. Why choose a low profile ref from Norway to take charge of a high profile game ? You could see the ref's face after the match ,when all the Chelsea players surrounded him,thinking "Is this worth it, I hope the money has gone into my swiss bank account, and the bmw Z4 from Platini is waiting outside with the engine running".
Football,its a funny old game :D :)

Do you work for Sky Sports?!

The Pique handball was the ONLY blatant penalty.

There have been ' death threats' against the Norwegian referee - who I believe has now gone into hiding!
