After the decision of Michael Oliver to refuse the Arsenal footballer Milsu Luis Smith, criticism erupted on the English referee. All the way to death threats, which he and his family received. Nevertheless, Oliver quickly returns to work — even after this incident.
Oliver will officiate the match "Barcelona" and "Atalanta" in the Champions League, confirming his decision to continue working. The police have already begun investigating the threats that were directed at the referee. These investigations are being conducted with the participation of the UK Football Policing Unit, which collaborates with social media platforms to track individuals who sent threats.
