Rodriguez who missed Suarez\\\'s bite to referee tonight\\\'s semi
Tuesday, 8 July 2014
Marco Rodriguez, the referee who failed to act on Luis Suarez's decision to bite Giorgio Chiellini, will take charge of Brazil's World Cup semi-final showdown with Germany, confirmed by FIFA Media.
Ironically, Rodriguez was the most card-happy official of the tournament, having dismissed 51 players during 79 international matches before this year's festivities, according to Sports Interaction.
He has shown one red card during the tournament, dismissing Italy's Claudio Marchisio during the showdown with Uruguay. The Mexican's failure to deal with Suarez in the same match certainly ranks alongside his most famous on-pitch moments.
