A Spanish Referee Will Officiate Roma's Match at Old Trafford
UEFA has appointed an entirely Spanish refereeing team for the Champions League match between Manchester United and Roma. The game will be played at Old Trafford on Tuesday.

Spanish referee Jesús Gil Manzano will take charge of the Champions League match between Manchester United and Roma, which will be played at Old Trafford on Tuesday. UEFA has assigned a completely Spanish team to the fixture. Juan Martínez Munuera will be the fourth official, Carlos del Cerro Grande will handle VAR duties, and Cuadra Fernández will assist. The match kicks off at 21:00 Central European Time.
Gian Piero Gasperini's side will go into the game in good form. Roma beat Udinese 5-2 on Saturday, scoring four goals in the first 37 minutes. With this win, they moved to within one point of Serie A leaders Inter and Lazio.
Manchester United appear to be going through a difficult period under Michael Carrick. The team lost 2-0 away to Chelsea on Saturday, extending their wait for a win. Earlier this season, they also lost 4-1 to Como in the Champions League.
At the same time, Inter will be away to Feyenoord. The match will be refereed by Swedish official Glenn Nyberg at De Kuip. Inter lost 3-1 in Saturday's Milan derby. Later in the night, Italian referee Davide Massa will take charge of the Barcelona versus Aston Villa match, with Fabio Maresca as fourth official.
