Referee Anthony Taylor was harassed by Roma fans in the airport
Taylor was the referee for the match, which Roma won 1-0. After the match, Roma manager Jose Mourinho confronted Taylor, accusing him of making several bad decisions that had cost Roma the match.
After the confrontation, Taylor was reportedly harassed by Roma fans in the airport. The fans shouted abuse at him and called him a "cheat." Taylor was also reportedly spat at.
The English Football Association (FA) has condemned the harassment of Taylor. The FA said that it will "take the strongest possible action" against anyone found to have been involved in the incident.
The incident is a reminder of the dangers that referees face when they officiate matches. It is also a reminder of the importance of respecting the decisions of referees, even if you disagree with them.
Here are some more details about the incident:
The harassment took place at the Fiumicino Airport in Rome, Italy.
The fans who harassed Taylor were reportedly Roma supporters.
Taylor was reportedly shouted at, called names, and spat at.
The FA has condemned the harassment and said that it will "take the strongest possible action" against anyone found to have been involved in the incident.
This is not the first time that Taylor has been harassed by fans:
In 2018, Taylor was subjected to abuse by Liverpool fans after he awarded a penalty to Manchester City in a Premier League match.
In 2019, Taylor was again subjected to abuse by fans, this time by Manchester United fans after he awarded a penalty to Tottenham Hotspur in a Premier League match.
The harassment of referees is a serious problem.
It can put referees off officiating matches and make it difficult for them to do their job. It can also create a hostile environment for players and fans.
The FA and other football authorities need to do more to protect referees from harassment.
They need to work with clubs and fans to create a culture of respect for referees. They also need to take strong action against anyone who harasses a referee.
