The visitors scored the winning try from the ensuing scrum.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI always take responsibility for what I do. I take responsibility for this decision 100%,\u201d Raynal told French media after being named the country\u2019s referee of the year on Monday. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI had the necessary reasons to take it. I know it\u2019s a decision that makes people talk, that makes a lot of noise, but I try to free myself from this context of pressure to make what seems to me the fairest calls. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is the heart of my job. And sometimes, it creates tensions, frustrations, controversies but I take responsibility for it. Things are never white or black but often grey.\u201d    <\/p>\n<p>The all but unprecedented decision triggered a huge uproar Down Under with former Wallabies lining up to call it a \u201cdisgrace\u201d and Rugby Australia writing to World Rugby to express their concerns. <\/p>\n<p>Raynal said he had avoided the news as much as possible in the days after the match. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere was criticism but a lot of support,\u201d he added. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo be honest, I deleted newspaper and social media apps so as not to follow everything that was going on. To preserve myself, I only kept Candy Crush.\u201d<\/p>\n<p> (Reporting by Nick Mulvenney, editing by Peter Rutherford)<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/uncategorized\/rugby-maynal-100-stands-by\/attachment\/rugby-union-2018-bledisloe-cup-rugby-championship-australia\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/tagreuters.com2022binary_LYNXMPEI8R053-BASEIMAGE.jpg\" alt=\"tagreuters.com2022binary_LYNXMPEI8R053-BASEIMAGE\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/uncategorized\/rugby-maynal-100-stands-by\/attachment\/rugby-world-cup-2019-pool-b-south-africa\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/tagreuters.com2022binary_LYNXMPEI8R055-BASEIMAGE.jpg\" alt=\"tagreuters.com2022binary_LYNXMPEI8R055-BASEIMAGE\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(Reuters) \u2013 French referee Mathieu Raynal said he \u201c100%\u201d stood by his much-criticised decision to penalise Australia\u2019s Bernard Foley for time-wasting against the All Blacks earlier this month.
