During Tuesday’s press conference organized by Olimpija, the focus was also on Igor Barišić, the business director of the Dragons, who addressed various topics in his interaction with journalists. Among other things, he explicitly emphasized that Luka Vešner Tičić from Koper is not good enough to play for Olimpija. At the same time, Igor Barišić also touched upon the subject of referees, about whom he apparently holds a high opinion.
“After defeats, I was the first to criticize players or the coach, not the inappropriate field or referees. Over the past year, I have constantly heard how referees favor Olimpija. How on earth can that be true? Neither I nor President Adam Delius personally know any Slovenian referees. Not Slovenian, not even Croatian. I think we were harmed in Maribor. But that just happens in football. Referees are fallible too, as they are, after all, human beings,” elaborated Igor Barišić, and then went on to compare Slovenian referees with those in Germany.
“Refereeing here is no worse than refereeing in the German Bundesliga. Mistakes happen there too. No smaller than in Slovenia. And there are just as many of them,” concluded the official from Munich.
