Ivan Kruzhlyak has been appointed head referee of the Europa League round of 16 match in Warsaw by UEFA.
UEFA has decided who will be entrusted with the right to referee the first meeting of the 1/8 finals of the Europa League between Shakhtar and Feyenoord. The main referee of the match was the representative of Slovakia, Ivan Kruzhlyak.
He will be assisted by compatriots Jan Pozor and Branislav Gantsko. The fourth referee was also a Slovak, Peter Kralovich.
The Germans, Christian Dingert, and his assistant, Harm Osmers, will be responsible for the VAR system.
It is noteworthy that Kruzhlyak’s path crossed with Pitmen four times. In the matches where this referee refereed, the Ukrainian club won three and lost once. The last meeting between Donetsk and Slovak ended in failure. Igor Jovicevich’s team lost to Real Madrid 1:2.
As a reminder, the match between Shakhtar and Feyenoord will take place on March 9 in Warsaw. Starting at 22:00 Kyiv time.
