Italy v South Korea 2002, referee Byron Moreno attacked after new whistles

Published

The famous Italy v South Korea 2002 World Cup referee Byron Moreno was attacked for his whistle at an amateur game in Ecuador.

The referee’s name Byron Moreno was written in the blackest colors of football history following his decisions in the 2002 World Cup round of 16 match between Italy and South Korea that led to the co-hosts’ qualification and unfair exclusion “squadra achura”.

The Ecuadorian referee retired in 2003 (and after several suspensions) but his whistles continued to cause tension in his face.

The 53-year-old was officiating an amateur league game in Guayaquil, where he lives, but after the game ended, a player pushed him from behind and threw him to the ground.

The rest of the players stepped in and prevented the worst for Moreno, who in recent years has been arrested in New York for possession of six kilograms of heroin, opened an academy for young referees and caused controversy on Ecuadorian television in the domestic league.
