Referees: Stricter Game Management Needed

,, I think it should be tighter. That has been weakened in the course of the season. We want a clearer approach to protests for the new season. Where I want to have said: if you can prevent it as a referee, you can of course. Depreats where possible, but perform if you have to. If you can get a player who comes to you with a hand gesture to stop criticism, you don’t have to give a yellow card. If a player comes running from twenty meters, then you can no longer de-escalate and you just have to give yellow. ”

Van Meenen wants referees to strictly monitor that only the captain can talk to the leader. If a goalkeeper is the captain, then another player can be designated who can do that. ,, It is important for the image of football that is given a good example at the highest level. Also as an example towards amateur and youth football, “says Van Meenen.” And European is really an item. Only the captain is being used throughout Europe. “
