Fernando Rocha was one of the three referees who officiated the infamous Real Madrid-Partizan match (80-95), which has already gone down in Euroleague basketball history for the worst reasons. With about two minutes left in the game as the Serbs attacked, an unsportsmanlike foul by Sergio Lull on Kevin Panter set off a fierce battle between players from both sides, with punches and even real UFC punches.
Panther “turned” Dzanan Musa and threw him to the ground, and Gershon Yabusele applied the “key” to Dante Exum! Incredible moments that took time to correct. Yabusele, for example, had to be forcibly removed from the pavilion. After a few minutes of deliberations, the trio of referees spoke to the coaches and decided to end the game.
This means that Partizan won at the Vizink Center, the home of Real Madrid, and increased the advantage in the quarter-final series to 2:0 (played in the best of Five format).
