Today, referees on the field are almost the main figures in every football match - they literally “make the game” along with the athletes. All their actions and decisions are discussed no less, if not more, than the game of the teams. It is they who, in many cases, decide the outcome of a dramatic sports fight. In this book, the international referee does not hide anything and honestly and without embellishment talks about sometimes tragic, sometimes funny and curious cases from his refereeing practice. The reader will be able to look behind the doors of the referee's rooms, see what happens there before the match and after the end of the match, what kind of showdowns take place there and what kind of people visit there. This book is about games in the referee's locker room, about the remarkable character of the "men in black", about the tough pressure on them, about imaginary and real authorities in the football world.
