After Lorenzo Insigne was sent off for dissenting towards referee Davide Massa, Naples manager Gennaro Gattuso attacked the “delicate” Italian referees in a post-match tirade.
Gennaro Gattuso complained that the Italian referees were too “touchy” and should adopt the tolerance of Scottish officials after Napoli captain Lorenzo Insigne was sent off in a 1-0 loss to Inter.
Napoli’s flagship expelled for complaints after Inter sanction
Napoli’s boss was furious that Davide Massa fired Insigne for his objections to the granting of a sanction that Romelu Lukaku converted in Wednesday’s Serie A clash.
David Ospina dropped Matteo Darmian and Insigne was quick to express her dismay at the decision, and Massa also didn’t waste time brandishing the red card..
“You must understand that a ‘f ** k off’ after a penalty can occur”
“Only in Italy do I see referees showing red for these things“said Gattuso.
“They don’t send you off in the same situation in England. I’m not making it up – I played in Scotland in the past and I still follow their football today.” The captain of a team cannot be sent off for a ‘f *** off’ to the referee for a doubtful penalty.
“In such an important match, an experienced European referee cannot be so delicate”
“This means that the referee is susceptible and if you are, then you can’t do this job. “
The former Rangers midfielder added: “Anyone who has played football knows that the stakes are high in a match like Inter-Napoli, and a word can escape. Only in Italy [red cards in these situations] It happens and it is not right, because the games are changed this way.
“Players have to calm down, but you should also understand that a ‘f *** off’ after a penalty can occur. In my opinion, a referee must have the intelligence and tact to understand that.
“If there is a red card for every extra word, so everyone should always be fired. “
Gattuso told Sky Sport Italia that accepts that referees have a “very difficult” job, saying that he also had to face oaths from his players in training.
He added: “I’m just saying that, In such an important match, an experienced European referee cannot be touchy. “
