FIFA AR Van Roekel achieved his goals and stops

The 47-year-old assistant referee Sander Van Roekel was, for many years, part of the team around referee Björn Kuipers, who retired after the Euro final and Dutch Supercup, before the start of this season.

Van Roekel was active in two World Cups and three European Championships. He considers this summer’s European Championship final between England and Italy to be his highlight. Van Roekel informed the KNVB that he stops because he no longer sees any new goals. “It’s been a nice journey”, he concluded. He was assistant referee in 556 Dutch pro games and 169 international matches.
