Rangers vs Eintracht Frankfurt referee revealed as Europa League Final pick has spooky yellow card count

Slovenian referee Slavko Vincic will be the man in the middle for next week's Europa League Final between Rangers and Eintracht Frankfurt.

The 42-year-old will officiate the clash in Seville as both teams dream of European glory after a thrilling run to the Final.

Vincic will be assisted by Tomaž Klančnik, Andraž Kovačič (both from Slovenia) and the fourth official Srđjan Jovanović (Serbia).

Rangers are one victory from their first European trophy in 50 years when the Barcelona Bears secured the Cup Winners' Cup.

Vincic is known for being a strict whistler and has dished out 55 yellow cards and 13 reds this season.

But he has earned a reputation as one of the emerging referees in world football and has now been awarded the showpiece encounter as Rangers and Frankfurt prepare to lock horns.

VAR will also be in play during the Europa League Final. It will be Paulus van Boekel (Netherlands) in charge and he will be assisted by Jure Praprotnik (Slovenia) and Spanish pair Alejandro Hernandez and Roberto Diaz Perez del Palomar (Spain)
