"Four had additional time of 10 minutes or more and some of the others didn't have the accurate amount, probably because they had scores of 7-0 and 4-0. "Last weekend in the Premier League, there were 10 matches," Collina said. More time should also have been added to Liverpool's seven-goal thrashing of Manchester United if new guidance had been applied properly, he said. "I am convinced time wasting will be reduced when players know it is meaningless to waste time because that time is compensated." Italian referee Collina was rated as the world's best referee in the late 1990s and early 2000s, taking charge of World Cup finals and CHampions League finals Why accurate time matters - even when the score is 7-0Ĭollina said the additional time in Liverpool's recent Champions League defeat by Real Madrid at Anfield was seven minutes but if the amount actually wasted in the second half had been assessed correctly, it would have been 16.

"I don't think someone wants to pay to watch a match that lasts 43 minutes." "The effective time at Aston Villa v Brentford was 43 minutes," said Collina who chairs Fifa's referees' committee.
