“Money always wins” – Corriere.it

«El dinero siempre gana», «Money always wins». Damian of the Maneskins, a huge Roma fan, does not hold back in judging Anthony Taylor’s refereeing in the Europa League final, which José Mourinho’s team lost on penalties against Sevilla in Budapest (May 31). In a series of stories on Instagram, Damiano David retraced his trip to Budapest as a Romanist fan: from his arrival in the Hungarian capital, venue for the match, to the “thank you” written to the team that went under the Giallorossi fan sector to thank them of the support received. A match started very well by Roma with the opening goal signed by Dybala. Then came Rakitic’s post at the end of the first half and Mancini’s own goal (who missed his penalty, together with Ibanez) at the start of the second half.

In summary, Taylor was challenged by José Mourinho (also in the bus park of the Puskas Arena) for the management of the cards (missing a second yellow card for Lamela, formerly on duty, who then converted his shot from 11 metres), as well as for having whistled a penalty against Sevilla on Ocampos (later removed once the images have been viewed at the Var) and having denied one to Roma for Fernando’s arm touch, without, among other things, seeing him again on the monitor: «Que lindo», «Che nice », always commented Damiano of the Maneskin in a story on his social profile, complete with photos of the touch of the hand of the Andalusian player. In short, the Italian pop star, like Mourinho (“he seemed Spanish…”, in a nutshell of the Special One on Taylor), he was scandalized by the refereeing of the English whistle and vented on Instagram.
