Football News: Euro 2024, Champions League, FIFA World Cup, Women’s World Cup, Africa Cup of Nations Standings, Premier League, EFL Cup, EFL Championship, EFL One, EFL Two, and FA Cup Updates
After both sides lost their opening Euro 2024 games, Georgia and Czech Republic will look to get off the mark at the tournament with a strong display and, ideally, three points. Progressing to the knockout stages will look especially difficult for either side if they lose this crucial Group F clash.
German referee Daniel Siebert, 39, will take charge of the game. Siebert has refereed on the international stage since 2015, overseeing three matches during Euro 2020 and two in the 2022 World Cup’s group stage. He has also handled high-profile club fixtures, including the 2019 German Supercup final between Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich, and a fiery Champions League tie between Atletico Madrid and Manchester City in 2022.
Siebert’s assistants for the Georgia vs Czech Republic match will be Jan Seidel and Rafael Foltyn, while Irfan Peljto from Bosnia and Herzegovina will act as the fourth official. The Video Assistant Referee (VAR) will be Marco Fritz, a 46-year-old German who will retire once the tournament finishes this summer.
