This is a quote from Massimo Busacca, the referee in the Arsenal game on Tuesday.

“I have my limits and God is at my side.”

In which case, mate, you should have a word with him about the difference between genuine commitment and time-wasting, and about fairness in general. And by the way, since clearly God didn’t tell you that when Messi was tripped in the first half it was a stone-wall penalty, you should consider leaving him in the dressing room next time.
