The AIA has made official the referee designations for the matches of the 15th day of Serie A, starting this evening. After the early matches this evening, with Inter-Parma entrusted to Abisso from Palermo and Atalanta-Milan refereed by La Penna from Rome, the choices for the big matches of the weekend stand out.
On Saturday at 18:20.45 p.m., referee Matteo Marchetti of the Ostia Lido section will be busy with the Juventus-Bologna match. In the evening, at XNUMX:XNUMX p.m., Daniele Chiffi of Padua will referee Roma-Lecce, a match that promises to be a spectacle. The Sunday evening postponed match, Napoli-Lazio, will instead see Andrea Colombo, of the Como section, referee a match with a strong specific weight in terms of the standings.
Alongside him are the linesmen Baccini and Del Giovane, the fourth official Aureliano, and the VAR pair composed of Locksmiths and Meraviglia. Among the other matches, Fiorentina-Cagliari stand out (referee Piccinini from Forlì), Genoa-Torino (Marinelli from Tivoli), and Monza-Udinese, a Monday late match, refereed by Manganiello from Pinerolo.
Serie A Referees: La Penna will referee Inter-Juventus, Colombo will referee Napoli-Roma.
The refereeing appointments for Serie A's twenty-fifth matchday have been announced, a round that features key clashes both for the Scudetto and the European Championship race. Fabbri will referee tomorrow evening's early match between Pisa and AC Milan.
The main spotlight will be on Saturday evening, however, at San Siro, where another chapter of the Derby d'Italia will unfold between Inter and Juventus. This match is worth much more than just three points, and it will be handled by La Penna, the experienced referee chosen for a match that promises to be highly competitive and atmospheric.
Serie A, Simonelli: More discussion with referees to standardize decisions
ROME – More dialogue and discussion are needed to reduce controversy and ensure uniformity of judgment. This is the approach advocated by Ezio Maria Simonelli, president of the Lega Serie A, speaking on the subject of refereeing at the end of the meeting held in Rome at the FIGC headquarters, dedicated to football system reforms.
"We are working with the referees to hold more and more meetings to better explain decisions and achieve uniformity of judgment," Simonelli stated, implicitly acknowledging one of the league's most controversial issues. This issue continues to fuel controversy among clubs, fans, and industry insiders, and the League now aims to address it through a more structured dialogue with the referees.
