The excellent Swiss referee Massimo Busacca will be at St James’ Park on Thursday night to take charge of our UEFA Cup Round of 16 1st Leg clash against AZ Alkmaar of the Netherlands. Busacca took charge of 3 matches at the World Cup in Germany last summer: Spain’s 4-0 victory over Ukraine and England’s 2-2 draw with Sweden (both in the Group Stage), and Argentina’s 2-1 extra time victory over Mexico in the second round. Busacca, 38 and fluent in 5 languages, is a Managing Director from Monte Carasso in the Italian speaking area of Switzerland.
