Marco Rose consoles crying referees: a person behind the pipe!

Leipzig, Deutschland - in the heart of the Uefa Champions League excretion, Marco Rose, coach of RB Leipzig, showed great humanity. After the emotional 2: 3 defeat against Aston Villa, the sadness was written in the face at the line judge Alessandro Giallatini. Rose, who felt the drama of the game not only for his team, but also for the official, hugged the 49-year-old Italian and looked for the conversation. In a moving moment he learned from Giallatini that this game was his last thing, which explained the reluctance of the referee assistant, as reported.

The trainer's gesture went beyond the game tactics; After the game, he even surprised Giallatini with a jersey as a farewell gift. Rose said: "I congratulated him and told him that he now has a little more time and should use it profitably that he can take care of his family." These words testify to empathy and respect for a man who led many games during his career. Despite the sixth defeat in the sixth game in this Champions League round, which Leipzig robbed any chance of progressing, Rose put the person behind the referee, which is not often seen in the football world, as Fussballdaten.de reported.
