Slavko Vincic appointed referee for the FIFA World Cup 2026 final.
Vincic issued a straight red card to Ecuador's Piero Hincapie during a round of 32 match against Mexico.
The appointment is controversial from Argentina's perspective due to Vincic's past decisions.
The final is a major event, but the referee selection is typically announced in advance.
