mistakes like these happen all the time. the heerenveen player acted very well to get the penalty, you cant blame the ref totally. ofcourse there are going to be stories blaming the loss on the ref, etc, but every team experiences losses like this, that doesnt make the UEFA cup a "mockery"...

I know it isn't a mockery.I'm just a bit angry now.

And I can blame the penalty on the ref.He was so biased it wasn't even funny.It was obvious he didn't want Dinamo to win.
Looking at the replay makes me wonder how in the hell could he have concluded that it was a penalty.There was barely contact.
Ridiculous.

Afghanistan's golf course has better grass than that piece of sh*it in Zagreb. If you want a play on that piece of crap, you don't deserve 3 points.

Maybe it was because the weather is harsh in Croatia, and Croatian football hasn't got the same money or facilites as the piece of sh!t you call Ajax.

UEFA investigates fix claims
Friday, 3 December 2004
UEFA has opened an investigation into allegations of match-fixing surrounding the UEFA Cup Group D match between Greek side Panionios NFC and Georgia's FC Dinamo Tbilisi on Wednesday.

Media reports
European football's governing body said today that it was launching its investigation on the basis of media reports in connection with the match, which Panionios won 5-2 at the Nea Smyrni stadium in Athens.

No further details
In announcing the investigation, a UEFA spokesman said that he was unable to disclose details of the investigation. "However, if it was proven that one of the clubs, through its players or officials has been involved in fixing the game, sanctions would be severe," he added.

UEFA principles
Article 5 of the UEFA disciplinary regulations - Principles of conduct - states that member associations and clubs as well as their players, officials and members, must conduct themselves according to the principles of loyalty, integrity and sportsmanship

Breaching of principles
These principles are breached by anyone who, among other things, engages in or attempts to engage in active or passive bribery, or whose conduct brings the sport of football, and UEFA in particular, into disrepute.

Possible measures
UEFA would be entitled to take a number of measures. These include heavy fines, the exclusion of a club from international competitions for several seasons, or the banning of individuals from any function related to football.

i think uefa must change that rule. don't make any sense. i think it must be the third to play against the CL team.

 

[$teauA]

GO ATHLETIC AND BESIKTAS

since Steaua is already through I want those two to win so that we finish 3rd and get an UEFA Cup team instead of a CL one
