Roberto Rosetti

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Roberto Rosetti (born September 18, 1967 in Pecetto Torinese, Torino, Italy) is an Italian football referee.

An international referee since 2003, Rosetti was a referee at the 2006 FIFA World Cup. He was one of only 21 2006 FIFA World Cup officials. The normal number is 23.

He was invited to referee the 2006 FIFA World Cup at the last minute, after another referee was unable to participate because of injury. He was to be the second Italian referee, but the other Italian, Massimo De Santis, was removed by the Italian Football Federation due to an ongoing investigation into the Serie A scandal of 2006. He is the tallest referee in the World Cup at at 1.90m (6ft 3ins). The 38-year-old hospital manager is from Turin.[1]

In the 2006 World Cup his assistant referees were Cristiano Copelli and Alessandro Stagnoli.

On June 28th, Rosetti was chosen as one of the last 12 referees who could officiate the final eight games of the world Cup 2006. He didn't actually officiate any of these matches, since the presence of four European teams in the semi-finals forced the organizers to choose non-European referees, but his selection was considered to be a significant honor for a last minute replacement. At this point in the tournament Rosetti had handed out 3.75 cards per match, the second lowest of all referees in the tournament.
