Napoli v Qarabag: Familiar referee for Champions League clash | OneFootball

On Tuesday evening, Napoli will play their fifth Champions League match, hosting Qarabag at the Maradona. Here is the referee assignment for the European match.

Napoli, Marciniak to officiate against Qarabag: The incident that ties him to Napoli is a bad memory for the Partenopei

Tuesday marks the fifth matchday of the Champions League, and Napoli will host Qarabag at home, at the Maradona Stadium. The Azerbaijani team has been the protagonist of a real feat in Europe so far, finding themselves with 7 points in the standings alongside Dortmund and Atletico Madrid.

The referee appointed to officiate the match at the Maradona is Polish Szymon Marciniak, but why is he remembered by Napoli fans?

The Polish referee returns to the Maradona after having officiated the match between Napoli and Milan, valid for the quarter-finals of the 2022/2023 Champions League. In that match, Napoli fans still remember the penalty not awarded to Lozano after a borderline challenge by Leo in the Rossoneri penalty area. Subsequently, also due to this episode, Milan advanced to the semifinals to face Inter, while Napoli were eliminated, later consoling themselves with the victory of their third Scudetto.
