Indeed he did. The referee turned Paulo Pereira Cristovao in.

What does that mean exactly, do you think. It's a bit unclear.

It reads as though it was the referee who turned Cristovao in.

That's what I thought originally, Tony, but the word "Revenge" doesn't sit quite right. It makes it sound as though they had some sort of previous relationship.

I'm not up on the intricacies of Portuguese football, Sabot, but it sounds as if they previously had some kind of working relationship which soured, and led to this?

That sounds feasible, Bonny. I suppose they must have known each other, at least casually. Perhaps Cristovao tried to bribe Cardinal, and he refused, so Cristovao tried to set him up, possibly to counteract a possible complaint.
