    To be honest, it's simply impossible to agree with Cristián Garay here.
    Clearly punishable handball, once confirmed that the touch occurred by arm. CONMEBOL admitted the mistake. He had also another OFR for handball before in the same game.
    Having said that, very good work about tansparency by CONMEBOL, one shouldn't have doubts.

      It's not a prediction, those 2nd leg appointments I list have already been published at UEFA page.

      I think Rojas (SPA) can be one of the best referee in the world.

    David Munro is consistently one of Scottish football's worst referees. He is nowhere near UEFA or FIFA calibre.

    An imposter.

    Former KNVB eredivisie referee Raymond van Meenen has been appointed as the new head of refereeing in the Netherlands. He is the succesor of Dick van Egmond who had to retire because of health issues.

    In the press release of the KNVB (dutch FA) is mentioned that van Meenen already had been working for the KNVB in de refereeing department before joining Feyenoord Rotterdam as their manager of the youth and womens academy. Also was he the chairman of the Dutch Referee laybor association. A role he will step down from now he's beeing appointed as the manager.

    Personally a little surprise this appointment. I know Raymond has made a career in management and from personal expierence with him in the past he is a great guy who I wish al the best in this role. I'm wondering if his lack of international expierence will be a dis advantage. I hope that he will apoint a staff around him with experienced former top FIFA referee's who can share that expierence to dutch (talented) referees.

      In many countries it would be impossible to become the head of referees working previously in one of the top-tier clubs.

    It seems Jonathan Lardot has been appointed as Technical Head of Professional Referee Department in Belgium

    Hot first half for Stavrev in Malta.

    Straight RC for SFP. Without further replays, looks a rather harsh but supportable decision.
    https://streambug.org/cv/1a90d3

    Penalty changed into simulation by VAR, absolutely correct decision thank to the exact angle. From referee position, it looked penalty, but from the camera on the other side, clearly no contact, with attacker looking for it and running into defender.

    Second YC for SPA, looks correct decision, blatant action by player.

    In overall OK first half (except 45+4', down writen) from Frappart and her crew at Bratislava 3 public verbal warmings Slo 7 for dissent, Stru 28 for simulation and Stru 4 (I think) for reckless tackle...Also great eye by AR1 for disallowed goal (not easy situation IMO)...There were some complains at 2:0 goal, for potential foul in attacking phase, but no zooms or replays of that moment in broadcast. 45+4' didn't delayed whistle for foul on goalkeeper, just at moment when ball entered goal, IMO no foul, so good goal disallowed, but also no zooms or replays in broadcast.

      Second half: Good clear offside and disallowed goal by AR1 again, also clear PK for Stru, but I was bit confused, because AR2 was not on penalty area/goal line intersection, but next to corner flag. YC for Slo 7 (kick in stopped play) was more unfortunate, than intention, but I understand why was given. She also ask Slo 13 to leave pitch to correct shinguards. Good YC for Stru 45 for lack of respect. Exemplary Slo 12 YC for dissent. Good YC for Stru 16 for lack of respect when she returned to foul after advantage.

    Luca Cibelli in FK Panevėžys - HJK Helsinki

    https://files.fm/u/2qtenvhqu4

    KMIs
    63’ Penalty PAN for tripping after play-on initiating an APP
    70’ 2YC 21PAN for reckless step on foot
    79’ PAI handball - arm seems to be naturally positioned + unexpected ball
    90' - YC Nicolás Gorobsov (PAN) for reckless kick from behind with no chance to play the ball

    Correct. Faultless disciplinary, good advantage use, difficult to say something about personality in a game involving fair behaving players. All bad fouls, that could've potentially changed the character of the game, were well identified and cautions issued. The mark should be in the 'very good' area: 8.5/8.6
