Who scored the goal doesn't matter. The referee completely ruined the game with an abysmal performance. The sending off was a joke and Hunt should have had a penalty and Buffon sent off. Complete shambles of a referee. Will that do?

Oh, btw the goal is being covered in another thread:

the ref did us a favour, no way was it a penalty, the ball was already out and he was looking for it like he was looking for the fouls all night. the ref was blowing for any slight bit of physical contact and he played to that, it just didn't work for the supposed peno.

i'd say it was definitely keanes goal.

Saw it again on telly, it was definitely a penalty, the ball was in play when Buffon hit him, Hunt got a nick on it first, the fact that it was going out of play is irrelevant.

I agree that Hunt was going down a little easy earlier in the game and that cost him for me.

The ref did us no favours after the harsh red card, Cannavaro could have easily been sent off twice after he was booked for example.
