In the Premier League, the controversy surrounding referee Anthony Taylor continues to grow.

During the last round of the Premier League, the English referee pulled out 14 yellow cards in the match between Chelsea and Bournemouth, setting a new record and arousing the ire of both coaches.

Following the episode, the Premier League decided to take action against Taylor, demoting him to fourth official for next weekend.

He will be active in this role for the match between Southampton and Ipswich Town on 21 September and for the match between Brighton and Nottingham Forest on 22 September.

Thus, Taylor’s track record following the horror show in the controversial Europa League final of 2022 in Budapest continues to deteriorate.
