The Rules of the Game by Pierluigi Collina
This book takes us into the world of the referee: the preparation needed for each game, the managing of players and the other officials, and the camaraderie behind the scenes.

This is also Pierluigi Collina's chance to speak out about the game he loves - his passionate, expert and sometimes controversial views.
