His handling of the final match between Argentina and Spain, particularly Argentina's physical approach and the sending off of Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernandez, drew widespread criticism. Fifa is currently investigating the post-match clashes between players from both teams, which marred the end of the final. Despite the recent controversy, the 46-year-old Slovenian official had a distinguished career, being recognised as the World Cup's best referee by the International Federation of Football History and Statistics (IFFHS) and the Association of Italian Referees (AIA). Vincic's notable appointments included officiating at Euro 2020, the 2024 Champions League final, the 2022 Europa League final, and being the first foreign official for a Turkish Super Lig fixture between Galatasaray and Fenerbahce.In fullWorld Cup final referee Slavko Vincic retires days after controversial Spain vs Argentina clashMore bulletinsThank you for registeringPlease refresh the page or navigate to another page on the site to be automatically logged inPlease refresh your browser to be logged in
