Szymonas Marciniak successfully refereed the Champions League semi-final between "Real" and "Bayern" until one episode. At the end of the match, he incorrectly whistled an offside, and soon after Matthijs de Ligt sent the ball into the goal. However, the goal was disallowed.

The Polish media outlet "Przeglad Sportowy" reports that after this semi-final, the status of the Polish judge Marciniak within UEFA has slightly wavered.

S. Marciniak was supposed to officiate the opening match of the European Championship between the teams of Germany and Scotland. It is currently unclear whether he will still receive this appointment.

It is possible that the Pole will receive fewer appointments to "important" matches in the near future.

Let us remind you that S. Marciniak handled his tasks in the World Cup final, where after extra time Argentina defeated France.
