7 of 8 Spanish International Refs Designated for European Matches

Seven of Spain's eight international referees have been selected to officiate in the preliminary rounds of the Champions League, Europa League, and Conference League this week. The only referee not chosen is Alejandro Hernández Hernández, who recently returned from officiating at the World Cup.

Hernández Hernández has also been participating in the Spanish referees' concentration camp held from July 28 to August 1 in Las Caldas, which may explain his absence from this week's European match assignments. rocore.sbs
