UEFA have appointed François Letexier as the referee for the Champions League quarter-final second beg between Real Madrid and Arsenal on Wednesday. Letexier will take charge of the high-stake encounter at the Santiago Bernabeu. Madrid, who are the current holders, are looking to overturn a 3-0 deficit from the first leg last week. Letexier previously refereed the Euro 2020 final in Germany between Spain and England. This is the fifth time the 35-year-old will be refereeing a Real Madrid fixture. Letexier was in charge of the group stage clash where the Madrid team lost 2-0 to Liverpool this season. Last season, Letexier also refereed the first leg of the quarterfinals at the Santiago Bernabéu against Manchester City, which ended in a 3-3 draw, and the group stage clash against Napoli, where Real Madrid won 4-2.
