“Players win the game… Coaches lose the game… Referees spoil the game.” .......Alfred Kleinaitis
so, for germany - brazil we have Marco Antonio Rodríguez, known as“Chiquidrácula” or“Chiquimarco”
he is praised by some and slaughtered by others, but one thing for sure , he is very influential referee on game outcomes. i haven`t seen him referring, neither watched urugay - italy , neither cannot remember from 2010 WC (germany 4 - 0 australia and chile 1 - 2 spain ), but this man sheds out cards like advertising leaflets, in last 81 international games, he has 52 reds , 30 pens and 356 yellows. you would think, that brazil with 96 fouls and 10 yellows in 5 games vs germans 57 fouls and only 4 yellows, are in trouble, but other stats suggests, that his referred games, where south america teams/clubs vs world teams/clubs plays, gets strong favour in south america side, be it cards, be it pens , be it game outcomes...
my bets are done for 1x2 markets, thinking to do cards markets. wanted to know what`s your oppinion on this "dracula" guy....
~ is he fair or biased ...
~ will we see red, or teams will have too much respect and it will be another nill all (fk all) game with 1 or 2 yellows....
~ is he kind of guy, who would send off host nation player in semis and wouldn`t even flinch an eyebrow ?
~ 4th referee is Mark Geiger, he is not shy either...
