sport">Fellow referee Bas Nijhuis announced on social media that both Dutch referees will receive a dream appointment in the final phase of the tournament. Kuipers will whistle the European Championship final at Wembley next Sunday, with which his brilliant refereeing career will receive the ultimate crown in his fifth and almost certainly last tournament. Moreover, Makkelie immediately whistles a semi-final in his first major tournament. At Wembley, the Dordtenaar is in charge of England-Denmark.
sport">Earlier, Makkelie was allowed to whistle the opening match Italy-Turkey, Russia-Finland and the loaded eighth final at Wembley between England and Germany. With the return of Makkelie to Wembley for England-Denmark, he can look back on an extremely successful debut at a major tournament.

sport">Kuipers gets a perfect end to his brilliant career, the crown on the work, which he so longed for. The Oldenzaler showed a strong appearance in the quarterfinals of Denmark-Czech Republic in Baku, although there was initially discussion about the corner kick awarded by assistant referee Erwin Zeinstra, from which the Danes would take the lead. At first it seemed wrongly awarded, because Kasper Dolberg seemed to touch the ball last, but images from a different camera point of view showed that it was indeed the Czech defender who touched the ball last. A great relief for Kuipers and his team, because such a discussion could have had a negative effect on his final chances. One appointment for the final phase of the tournament in London has already been officially announced.
