Antonio Mateu Lahoz will take charge of this evening’s Champions League final- it will be the Spaniards first time refereeing a major European Cup final.
|
Lahoz has officiated 6 matches in this season’s Champions League, dishing out no fewer than 32 cautions.
Lahoz handed out a whopping 9 cautions in Manchester United’s group H tie away to RB Leipzig in December & the 44-year old could have another busy time in the middle. |
Joao Cancelo was sent off in Manchester City’s final Premier League game of the season against Brighton and the Portuguese full-back has been booked 3 times in this season’s Champions League.
Juan Cuadrado was the last player to be sent off in a Champions League final. The Colombian was dismissed for a second bookable offence in the 2017 final following a coming together with the divisive Sergio Ramos.
