UEFA has dismissed two Spanish referees, Alejandro Hernndez Hernndez and Jess Gil Manzano, from officiating at Euro 2024 after receiving complaints about their performance.

Hernndez, who served as the VAR official, faced criticism for dismissing Scotlands penalty claim in their 1-0 loss to Hungary last Sunday. Manzano was under fire for his error during Frances 1-0 victory over Austria.

Alongside the two referees, their assistants, Diego Barbero Sevilla and ngel Nevado Rodrguez, have also been sent home.

This decision leaves Martnez Munuera, a VAR official, as the only Spanish representative for the remainder of the tournament.

Former La Liga referee Iturralde Gonzalez has called on the Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) to improve relations with UEFA following the dismissal of four out of five Spanish officials after the group stage.
