Referee started and will finish Euros
ITALIAN referee Roberto Rosetti will complete a unique double tomorrow, taking charge of the Euro 2008 final 22 days after refereeing the opening game.
Rosetti, 40, will be the first referee to do so at a European Championship. Two years ago Argentina's Horacio Elizondo became the first to take charge of the opening game and the final of a World Cup. "I know it hasn't happened much before but I never thought after getting the opening game that my chances for the final were over," Rosetti said.
