113Lastly, it must be stated that, as the Commission points out, the appellants’ arguments to the effect that the General Court wrongly substituted its own assessment for that of the Commission when examining the objective necessity of the MIF amount, in fact, to a challenge in respect of the General Court’s assessment of the evidence. On the grounds set out in paragraphs 94 to 120 of the judgment under appeal, at the end of a definitive appraisal of the facts of the case, which does not fall within the jurisdiction of the Court of Justice in the context of an appeal, the General Court held that ‘the Commission was legitimately able to conclude that the MIF was not objectively necessary for the operation of the MasterCard system’. Those arguments must therefore be rejected as inadmissible.
