Drogba right to criticise referees – Hiddink

Guus Hiddink has backed the reaction of striker Didier Drogba after the final whistle of Wednesday night’s controversial Champions League semi-final.

The Ivorian was furious at the end of the match which Chelsea lost in questionable circumstances, labelling the referee a disgrace to the television cameras on the pitch among other actions.

Hiddink said he can understand Drogba’s anger and would defend him where he could.

"Of course I can fully understand his reaction, he was full of emotion," Hiddink said.

"The moment he starts hitting, he is going somewhere he shouldn't go. I will protect him."
