Cyprus Football Federation Considers Foreign Referees

The Cyprus Football Federation (CFA) discussed the issue of refereeing with team presidents, considering the possibility of introducing foreign referees from the 23rd matchday. The discussion arose due to increasing pressure from the teams, especially as the league reaches its critical stages. The potential approval of foreign referees has brought increased interest to the APOEL-Omonia and Paphos-Anorthosis matches, which will be held on the 23rd matchday. The start of the 22nd matchday took place with the match Anorthosis-FREEDOM24 ENY, while the implementation of the introduction of foreign referees is expected to be examined within the stadiums. This situation reflects the inability to adequately guarantee the integrity of the matches by local referees, as many argue.
