The UK's Football Association is looking into the clash between assistant referee Constantine Hatzidakis and Liverpool's Andy Robertson, with Hatzidakis unable to officiate matches in the meantime.
The clash happened as Andy Robertson ran up to Constantine Hatzidakis at half-time.abc.net.au/news/referee-stood-down-after-elbowing-liverpool-andy-robertson/102206924Assistant referee Constantine Hatzidakis has been stood down from officiating matches while the Football Association looks into his clash with Liverpool defender Andy Robertson.
The official appeared to raise his arm when colliding with Robertson during Liverpool's 2-2 draw with Arsenal in the Premier League at Anfield. The Professional Game Match Officials Limited , which oversees referees and assistants, said Hatzidakis had been taken off duty for now. "PGMOL will not be appointing Constantine Hatzidakis to fixtures in any of the competitions it serves whilst the FA investigates the incident involving the assistant referee and Liverpool defender Andrew Robertson at Anfield," the PGMOL said.
Fulham's Aleksandar Mitrović and Manchester United's Bruno Fernandes both pushed referees this season, with Mitrović banned for eight games and Fernandes avoiding a sanction.
