A UEFA Referee is an official responsible for enforcing the rules of football during matches organized by the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA). They ensure fair play, make decisions on fouls, and manage the game’s flow. Referees are trained professionals who must demonstrate a deep understanding of the laws of the game. In addition to the main referee, each match typically includes assistant referees and a fourth official. These officials help monitor the game, assist with offside calls, and manage substitutions. Together, they work to maintain the integrity of the match and ensure a safe environment for players and spectators.
