• By the way, Ricci has already worked in the match of the Russian national team in this World Cup! Well, as he was working, he was a reserve arbiter when we destroyed Saudi Arabia. In the role of the leader served the meeting Croatia – Nigeria (2-0) and the most boring match of the tournament France – Denmark (0: 0). For 180 minutes, he shows four yellow cards, does not remove anybody and does not award any penalty.
• Ricci is the first referee in the world to count the goal of the world championship thanks to technology goal-line . It happened in the match of the FM-14 France – Honduras. After the impact of Karim Benzema, the ball hit the bar, rolled along the line, hit the back of goalkeeper Valladares, and jumped off the ribbon. The Honduran goalkeeper quickly took the ball away. But the electronic system of goals and Ricci with it has failed to deceive. The Brazilian scored the goal, France led 2-0, finally scoring the third ball.

• In 2015 Ricci took away one of the best players in the 2018 World Cup – Edinson Cavani. Removed with scandal. In the quarterfinals of the Copa America, Chile and Uruguay were hammered. The Chilean Gonzalo Jara made a completely vile provocation in the account of nobody. I do not even want to describe it – just watch

Naturally, Ricci wrote Cavani for some reason for Edinson she became second in the game. After that, the Chile team scored the winning goal, in addition Richie kidnapped another Uruguayan defender Fusile. "It's a real circus, we do not know why the judge drove two of our players, in equal compositions we would have won, there are simply no words," he said. normally calm Diego Godin.

• Ricci is perfectly familiar with the VAR system. In addition, the highest level – at the end of 2017, he worked at the World Cup clubs, where in the match of "Real" against "Al-Jazeera" canceled the goal Kazemiro. For that, Ricci "was watching TV" and decided that Karim Benzema, who was out of play, influenced the fate of the episode. So with VAR, Ricci should not have any problems.
• Ricci also worked at the Confederations Cup in our country. In addition, head coach of the Mexican national team Roberto Osorio was disqualified for 6 games and fined 5,000 francs for insulting the referees for third place Portugal-Mexico (2: 1). Granted, Ricci was not the main referee, but the reserve, responsible only for the VAR. The main brigade was from Saudi Arabia, but Osorio shouted at everyone. Reminder, then the Mexicans missed the victory in the 90th minute, the extra points missed the decisive goal of the 11 meters, and on the 119th demanded to name a penalty already in the doors of the Portuguese. But Judge Fahad Al-Mirdasi refused to watch the replayed video.
