Premier League referee Anthony Taylor insisted supporters needed to have a more sympathetic view towards referees before he was attacked in Budapest's airport this week.
Taylor took charge of Wednesday's fiery Europa League final in which Sevilla defeated Roma in a penalty shootout. Roma boss Jose Mourinho was left furious with Taylor and even waited in the car park to lambast the referee after the game.
Taylor and his family were then attacked by angry Roma fans as they made their way through the airport on Thursday, in disgusting scenes. The Englishman had to be escorted by police officers, with Mourinho and Roma being slammed by many for their actions in the final.
