The organization is not satisfied with the work of the Spanish referee Mateo Laos in the rivalry between the Netherlands and Argentina.
FIFA sends Spanish referee Mateo Laos home. At the same time, after the withdrawal of the Spanish national team from the World Cup, his candidacy was called one of the priorities for work on the World Cup final in Qatar.
However, according to the authoritative publication Marca, the fate of the referee was decided by the quarterfinal match between the Netherlands and Argentina. It can be remembered that in that match, Laos handed out 15 yellow cards and was criticized by the players after the final whistle. Even Argentina captain Leo Messi expressed his displeasure with the referee.
After an annoying meeting, the FIFA Judiciary Committee decided to send Laos home, the Spaniard will follow the last four meetings like an ordinary fan. The head of the committee, Pierluigi Collina, decided not to risk it, and refused his services.
It should be noted that at the World Championships in Qatar, Laos judged three matches: Qatar – Senegal, USA – Iran and Netherlands – Argentina, and only after the last match the judge was under a barrage of criticism.
We will remind, early fans of the England team also expressed dissatisfaction with the work of the referee of the quarterfinals in France, and even corrected his Wikipedia page.
