French football referee Jérôme Miguelgorri reacted sharply to criticism from fans during the 1/32 final of the French Cup between Stade Poitévin and Lens (0: 1). Reported by The Sun.
In the 38th minute of the match, the referee sent off the football player “Stade Poitévin” Cesar Neto. This happened a minute after Lance scored the ball. In stoppage time in the second half, Miguelgorri ordered a free kick in favor of the guests after goalkeeper Stade Poitévin caused a scuffle between the players.
The fans of Stade Poitévin, who were present at the match, did not like this decision. They started chanting “Fuck the referee!” In response, Migelgorri decided to make fun of the fans. He put his hand to his ear, thus asking fans to chant louder.
On April 7, 2021, former England footballers Joleon Lescott and Owen Hargreaves criticized the UEFA Champions League quarter-final referee between Manchester City and Borussia Dortmund, who signed an autograph from German club forward Erling Holland. According to the ex-players, this behavior is inappropriate for officials.
