Mateu Lahoz is waiting for a possible match in the quarterfinal

Mateu Lahoz He will have to wait for the quarterfinals to lead a match again in this World Cup. Qatar. Yesterday FIFA I have just appointed eight referees for the round of 16 and the Spanish international referee was not selected in any of them. The Argentinian rapllinito beep at Spain – Moroccoand the Mexican Cesar Ramosselected for Portugal – SwitzerlandThey were the last to do it.

Now a future assignment is highly dependent on what happens tomorrow in the game of Spain. In the event of qualification, he will not be able to whistle the second quarterfinal duel in between France and England as it would directly affect a hypothetical cross in the semifinals with Spain. The normal thing is that it is a match of another table where traversal is already defined Argentina – Netherlands and where the other rivalry that will emerge in the two rounds of 16 matches this Monday between Brazil – South Korea and Croatia – Japan remains to be determined. I always go to the other side of the Spanish box. A future classification of Spain in the semifinals, he will leave the Spaniard without options in this round, leaving the third and fourth spots open.

Yes Spain If he fails to pass this round, he can be selected for any future quarterfinal match, semifinals or even the grand finals. Matthew continuing on Qatar training and preparation for a future assignment.

There are two matches that have been whistled so far by the Spaniard. The latter, the intense rivalry for political reasons between the United States and Iran. He made his debut in the match between the host team of Qatar. In total, seven matches total in his World Cups arbitration career. Four as referee (two in Qatar and two in Russia) and three more as fourth referee in 2018.

Two of the six Spanish representatives in the eighthyes

If they have a presence in the second round, two of Spain’s six other referee representatives at the World Cup. As we said yesterday in Mundo Deportivo, it is about Hernández Hernández and Roberto Díaz del Palomar. The canary serves as AVAR this Monday in Brazil-South Korea. The second, and assistant matthew, is the offside VAR for both of these matches. The other two VAR referees (Marti Munuera and De Burgos Bengoechea) also continue in Qatar while awaiting assignment, as does Pau Cebrián, Mateu’s other assistant. Let’s not forget that Spain is the country that brought the most VAR referees to this World Cup.
