I thought the referee did a solid job with the calls when necessary and let play go on when prudent. I look forward to next week's matches.

Yes, the Man Utd v Roma game was pretty tactical IMO. You can't blame Man Utd for not taking the game to Roma when they got the perfect result. I don't see Roma scoring 3 goals at Old Trafford with or without the talismanic Totti!
I agree with the officiating part.....they did a good job keeping the game flowing as much as they possibly could without losing control of things. It's not easy to officiate at the Olympic Stadium in Rome.
