Why this petition matters

Started by Camelia Boricean

Petiție sa fie suspendat arbitrul Felix Zwayer pentru arbitrajul incorect de la meciul Romania - Olanda, după ce jucătorii noștri au fost accidentati și nedreptățiți pe tot parcursul meciului. 

As a passionate supporter of Romanian football, I bear witness to the gross injustice during the Romania-Netherlands match on 2nd July 2024. Our team played fairly and with might, but the actions of the appointed referee, Felix Zwayer, have raised disturbing questions about the integrity of the sport. 

Our player, Mogoş, suffered a severe injury due to an unchecked tackle from a Netherlands player, an offense that failed to draw even a yellow card. This glaring oversight has not only affected us emotionally but also denigrated the competitive spirit of the game. The refereeing plummeted further when an unjust action was called against Nicolae Stanciu and Denis Alibec, two of our promising strikers, just as they were about to score. The game was branded as 'dangerous' when it was well within the acceptable dynamics. Ianis Hagi injured his head and was bleeding on the pitch, the referee did not even give one yellow card out. 

Such biased refereeing compromises the spirit and fairness of football -- a sport loved and respected worldwide. Our team, and every team, deserves an unbiased, fair match where they compete on the basis of skill, not on the whims of an unjust referee. We need to reaffirm the values of fairness, integrity, and transparency in football and stop any such incidents from recurring.

This petition seeks support in suspending Felix Zwayer from refereeing duties until a thorough investigation occurs into his actions during this pivotal match. Our national team and football teams worldwide deserve unbiased officials for their matches. This petition is a plea to FIFA, UEFA, and all sporting bodies to review this matter with urgency.

Help us uphold the fairness of football. Sign this petition and stand against unjust refereeing.
