Man In The Middle (Episode 4) takeaways
In E4, MITM goes behind the scenes as UEFA and its referees prepare for the Final 8 of the UEFA Champions League in Lisbon, and we follow Daniele Orsato as he takes charge of the showpiece final.
My takeaway:
Björn Kuipers: “Let’s say I had an agenda that was really full of obligations. And when C19 came, there was no football, no lectures, no obligations. Only time for family. And I saw I have too little time in previous years to my children. My daughter was born in June when there are always tournaments. She’s 15 and I could only be at 4 birthdays. I missed 11. In the future, I’ll be more a family man, less a business man.”
