News: Japanese referee didn’t play fair!

The Japanese referee who officiated the TnT/England match last Thursday (June 15th) may be given the boot from the World Cup permanently.

Japanese referee Toru Kamikawa may have officiated in his last World Cup match...ever.

This is the scenario after his performance in Thursday’s Group B World Cup match between Trinidad and Tobago and England came under increasing fire from football pundits throughout Germany.

So FIFA, the world governing body for football and the organizers of the World Cup Finals have placed Kamikawa on a list of referees whose performance will be reviewed.

This is a clear signal that FIFA is unhappy at the way the Japanese official conducted his duties at the Franken Stadion in Nuremberg as the Soca Warriors conceded two goals in the last seven minutes to lose the match.
