Video: police rescue referee from fans at Budapest Airport
The Hungarian capital, Budapest, hosted the Europa League football final last night. Referee Anthony Taylor and fans of the losing team AS Roma were about to leave from Liszt Ferenc International Airport, and a serious confrontation unfolded.
According to Sportitalia, the angry Italian fans made threatening gestures towards Taylor. The incident required the intervention of the Hungarian police, who escorted Taylor to a separate room.
Taylor gave 14 yellow cards in the match, most of them to Roma players, and after the game, AS Roma coach JosĂ© Mourinho was critical of the referee’s actions after the match.
