Argentina vs Netherlands: Referee Mateu Lahoz sent home by FIFA

Referee, Mateu Lahoz has been sent home and will no longer referee at the World Cup.

Lahoz will not be officiating any of the remaining games at the World Cup as he ‘heads home from Qatar.’

According to COPE, the referee’s final game was the feisty quarter-final clash between Argentina and Netherlands, where he issued out an incredible 15 yellow cards.

Lahoz’s performance was not well received by either team – with Argentina’s players, particularly vocal about his officiating.
