The stage is set for the highly anticipated EURO 2024 final between Spain and England in Berlin, and French referee Francois Letexier has been handed the coveted task of officiating the big game!
Letexier, 35, is no stranger to high-pressure matches, having refereed an impressive 65 UEFA games since 2017. His resume includes three Euro 2024 group stage matches, where he kept things in check between Spain and Georgia, Denmark and Serbia, and Croatia and Albania.
But that’s not all – Letexier was also the fourth official at this year’s Champions League final, where Real Madrid triumphed over Borussia Dortmund. Talk about a warm-up act.
Joining Letexier on the pitch will be his trusty French assistants Cyril Mugnier and Mehdi Rahmouni, while Szymon Marciniak (Poland) will be on standby as the fourth official.
But wait, there’s more! The video assistant referee (VAR) role has been assigned to Jerome Brisard (France), assisted by Willy Delajod (France) and supported by Massimiliano Irrati (Italy). Tomasz Listkiewicz (Poland) completes the dream team as the assistant reserve referee.
With this all-star crew in place, we can expect a thrilling and fair final match between Spain and England. Letexier and his team will be the ones to keep an eye on, ensuring that the beautiful game is played with integrity and sportsmanship.
