PLAY THE ADVANTAGE

Here are your Champions League referees for Tuesday, February 25.

So, we have two “non-World Cup” referees in William Collum of Scotland and Gianluca Rocchi of Italy.

Both men have about equal experience in Champions League, which means not much past the group stages. I don’t have a lot of information on the kind of year that Collum’s having, but Rocchi has been solid, if uninspiring.

I must say, though, that these appointments don’t seem to reach the caliber of last week’s referees, so we’ll have to see how they do.
