Rafa Benitez má eiga það að hann kvartar aaaafar sjaldan yfir dómurum. En hann gerir það eftir Sao Paulo leikinn:

it was unbelievable the referee didn’t show the red card for that foul on Steven Gerrard. I can’t understand why only three minutes were added on.

“I talked to the officials at the end of the game but you can’t change things. But something should change if you want to give importance to this competition. To play one game before the final and not water the pitch is not the most common thing.

“And you wouldn’t get a Mexican referee and Canadian linesman in the final of the World Cup. They replayed a lot of instances on the screen but not the goal - why? Everyone has seen we’ve scored three goals.

“There were a lot of things during the game, and I’d like to know what is a red card? And I want to know why, when there have been lots of stoppages in the game, we only had three more minutes at the end?”

Jammm, það er erfitt að vera ósammála honum í þessu.

Xabi er líka fúll en segir samt að það mikilvægasta sé að horfa fram á veginn.
