Björn Kuipers and Felix Brych will stay as FIFA referees still for a certain time. Brych announced that he will quit at the end of 2021, while Kuipers confirmed that he will go on, unknown how long. We can continue to watch two of the most experienced UEFA referees for a while!

Anthony Taylor forced to show two yellow cards in a few seconds and the subsequent red card for protests. Excellent management by English referee, after an attempt to undermine his authority that couldn't go unpunished.
